Thompsons and Unite Legal Services secures hundreds of millions of pounds in compensation each and every year on behalf of injured or mistreated Unite members.

Unlike when instructing high street firms, members using Unite Legal Services have the guarantee that they will deal with an expert and keep 100% of their compensation. We were responsible for helping Unite to successfully bring a blacklisting case against major UK construction firms, securing over £10 million for members who had been unlawfully blacklisted by the firms involved. You can learn more about our fight for justice in our video.
