Helen Davies

Industrial Disease Paralegal

I joined Oliver & Co Solicitors in 2005 as a secretary in the Personal Injury and Industrial Disease teams before being promoted to Paralegal in 2008. It is my job to assist our team of solicitors in tracing insurers and the companies our clients worked for. Time is of the essence in asbestos disease cases and so it is not unusual for me to visit clients in their own homes in order to take statements and obtain further information to assist our team in achieving the best possible outcome in any case. In addition to working on the legal side of claims, I regularly assist clients with applications for any benefits they may be eligible for.

Charity is at the heart of Oliver & Co Solicitors and as a member of our Corporate Responsibility Team I help to organise charity events throughout the year ranging from cake bakes to music gigs. We also try to find ways to make the company more environmentally friendly.

After finding out I been diagnosed with asbestos related disease although I had been successful in getting industrial disease benefits with the help from the charity DAST I was very sceptical regarding making a claim and after contacting Oliver Co they made me feel at ease from the first person who spoke to me Helen Davis who explained everything in a way was easy to understand very professional when I first spoke to my solicitor again explained everything to me in away easy to understand service and advise James Cameron was my solicitor who told me he would deal with my claim as quickly as possible I was so surprised how quick thing changed from the first correspondence it the company only 12 months from start to finish for my claim to be successful I cannot thank James Cameron and Helen Davis enough thank you Oliver.Co would recommend them to anyone over and over.
