Nathaniel Gadsby, an Associate Solicitor in our criminal defence team, has received a fabulous 5-star review from is client who he represented in a successful submission of ‘no case to answer’ in a death by dangerous driving case. Nathaniel’s client was the passenger in a vehicle that collided with another at excess speed, tragically killing the driver of the second vehicle. The driver pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving and received a substantial custodial sentence, yet the Crown Prosecution Service insisted they would proceed with three charges against our client. Following an extensive legal argument, the Judge allowed a submission of 'no case to answer' at the close of the prosecution case, and the jury were discharged. Nathaniel was pleased to achieve such a positive outcome on a lengthy and complex case. Robert L. of 187 Chambers was instructed and provided invaluable advice throughout the challenging and ever-evolving proceedings.

Back at my desk today after spending part of last week at the ALC Conference in Bristol (and sharing a room with Maria Pilavaki!) Often attendance at these sorts of events can feel like something that is just reserved for more senior lawyers. I’m so grateful that TV Edwards Solicitors has supported me in attending the ALC Conference this year, despite still being in the early stages of my career as a solicitor. I have to say an extra special thank you to Sarah Inchley who always goes above and beyond to seek out and push for development opportunities for me and other junior lawyers in our department 🫶

A huge thank you to the Association of Lawyers for Children (ALC) and everyone involved in organizing such a fantastic conference. The engaging speakers and workshops taught us so much, and we left feeling inspired and uplifted. It was wonderful to spend time with friends and collegues, both old and new, in this amazing legal community.

Congratulations to Shaun Livingston, Aneela Samrai and Edie Selsdon from our highly regarded Social Welfare team for receiving a fabulous 5* review from a client. Shaun worked with the client on a community care case and Aneela and Edie on a housing one. On both matters the client praised them for their outstanding support and for exceeding his expectations. He commented that their expertise, dedication, and persistence made a real difference in his life and he couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Our Social Welfare team has been recently recognised in The Legal 500 2025 guide for being “Extremely thorough and aren't averse to travelling roads unknown, truly working with clients at every point. Brilliant minds and ethical approaches. Highly recommended.” Well done Shaun, Aneela and Edie - this recognition is thoroughly deserved 👏👏👏 #5StarReview #HousingLawyers #SocialWelfareLawyers #CommunityCareLawyers

Shaun Livingston, an Associate lawyer in our leading Social Welfare team, has successfully secured an order for his client, declaring that the Article 8 ECHR rights of a significantly disabled child were breached by her local authority, Northumberland County Council (“NCC”), by unlawfully issuing care proceedings and requiring the child’s mother and siblings to leave the family home while the care proceedings were ongoing. The court’s order also records that changes made to the child’s bespoke care and education package while care proceedings were ongoing had a negative impact on her and caused her significant distress. A substantial damages settlement of £50,000 has also been agreed.

Well done Shaun for all your successes and great work 👏 👏 👏 #FamilyLaw #CourtOfAppeal #CareProceedings
