Stewart White

Stewart has been with Thompsons since starting with the firm as an Office Junior many years ago. Following a period in I.T. he gained highers at evening classes funded by his Union which paved the way for him to undertake the Law Society's Professional law exams, sponsored by Thompsons through a Pre-Diploma traineeship. Once those exams were finally behind him he gained the Diploma in Legal Practice at the University of Edinburgh culminating in his qualification as a Solicitor in 2005. He is now an Associate with the firm.

In the last year Stewart has obtained over £5 Million in Compensation for his clients.

Stewart has over 13 years experience in Civil litigation. He presently deals with a broad spectrum of reparation law ranging from Medical Negligence to Product Liability with the majority of his case load involved with representing those injured at work or on the road. He also has experience in Employment Law and has provided representation for Union clients at Employment Tribunals.
