Where it all began
Chief Executive Officer James Maxey founded the firm on the principles of continuous improvement, back at the turn of the century. In 2002, he appointed Partner Robin Patey, who offers decades of experience in handling serious injury claims.
The team of directors and partners grew larger in 2003 with the appointment of Daniel Slade, head of the Public Liability team, and expert in complex cases. In 20 years, the firm has now expanded to a talented legal team of more than 100, specialising in cases such as:
Medical negligence
This involves helping people who have been hurt or injured as a result of the negligence of a medical professional either privately or through the NHS. It might include botched surgery, GP misdiagnosis or delay in diagnosing serious conditions, or injuries at birth, among other types.
Road traffic accidents
We handle thousands of road traffic accident claims that involve cars, motorbikes and other vehicles, public transport, and pedestrians. Injuries can range from whiplash (soft tissue injuries) through to catastrophic injury. We provide full support for you whatever the situation you’re in.
Accidents at work
The workplace can be full of dangers and accidents waiting to happen. We deal with accidents in warehouses, or construction site accidents, as well as injuries sustained from inadequate training. Accidents can occur in any working environment and we’re here to help if you’ve been injured at work.
Diversity & Inclusion at Express Solicitors
At Express we pride ourselves on working with a diverse range of talent from all backgrounds. We always look to promote and support all our members of staff whatever their background.

Today, the firm is nationally recognised and has taken on some of Britain’s biggest brands in landmark legal claims, including GlaxoSmithKline and Dairy Crest.
