Angela Staples

Angela, who works out of Thompsons' Nottingham office, has 18 years' experience as a lawyer. Her cases come from across the East Midlands.

Angela's case load covers a range of Accident claims, including work related stress claims, assaults at work, road traffic accidents and claims arising for accidents in public places, like supermarkets or on the street. Injuries sustained by her clients range from the relatively minor to major, long lasting damage.

For Angela, working with cases that can be relatively minor, where the client makes a full recovery, to claims where the client faces long term consequences from their injury, is made all the more rewarding by working closely with the trade union movement. The claims she makes are regularly supported by evidence provided by activists in the workplace, meaning that she is able to concentrate on providing excellent client care, while also obtaining the maximum amount of damages in the shortest possible time.

Out of work, Angela relaxes with swimming and spending time with family.

Case experience

• Angela secured £80,000 in compensation for a client who sustained injuries as a result of his employer's failure to properly risk assess the job.

Testimonials

Highly professional and efficient. Despite a location and representation change mid-claim, Thompsons kept right on point and remained focused and thoroughly dedicated to my unfortunate work-related accident. With empathy and determination, my representative collated information and used the facts to provide a satisfactory result. I would certainly recommend their services in similar circumstances, they managed to keep communication to a minimum whilst precisely remaining relevant to the issues at hand.
