Hodge Jones & Allen has been at the forefront of helping military personnel and their families with claims against the Ministry of Defence for injuries or loss they have suffered.

In recent years we have won two ground breaking claims at the Supreme Court which have extended the protection of human rights law to British soldiers serving abroad and defined the extent to which the Ministry of Defence could rely on the doctrine of combat immunity as a defence against negligence claims.

Specialist military claims solicitors

While we have a reputation for winning substantial compensation for families who have needlessly suffered avoidable injuries or the loss of a loved one, our sympathetic lawyers know that it’s not always about money. We help people gain what is often more important – the truth about what went wrong, changes to procedures to spare others from anguish in future, and an apology.

Our Civil Liberties & Human Rights team can assist you with human rights claims and our Personal Injury team can assist you with claims for physical or psychological injury. By working collaboratively, both teams offer a seamless and comprehensive level of service unmatched by many other law firms.
