David Greenhalgh Retires

On Wednesday 30th April, we said farewell to a truly remarkable colleague, David Greenhalgh, as he retired from Clarkson Wright & Jakes after a long and distinguished career in personal injury and clinical negligence law.

David has been a pillar of strength and expertise at CWJ, earning the respect of clients and colleagues alike for his deep knowledge, unwavering integrity, and compassionate approach to what are often some of the most difficult moments in people’s lives.

Over the years, David has made an enormous impact—not just through the cases he’s handled, but through the mentoring, leadership, and kindness he has shown every step of the way.

We thank you, David, for your dedication, your professionalism, and the legacy you leave behind. You will be greatly missed, but we wish you nothing but happiness and relaxation in your well-earned retirement.

From 1 May, Alex Wormald will head the Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence team.

“ What truly sets CWJ apart is their genuine commitment to their clients.
Alex took the time to listen to my concerns, patiently answered all my questions, and provided clear and concise explanations every step of the way. His ability to communicate complex legal concepts in a manner that was easy to understand even to me as a foreigner was truly invaluable.”

“I had no idea of the redundancy process and was quite overwhelmed but Faye was clear and ensured I fully understood my options and the details of the settlement contract I was signing. She was sympathetic to my situation, providing the support I required. Everyone at CWJ in contact with me regarding this matter was kind and approachable. Thanks so much for your help.”

“ I am so pleased with the services provided by CWJ, firstly in helping me with the probate of my mothers estate, and then with the conveyance service when the time came to sell the property.”
from a Recent Client (2024)
“ I needed to contact the Land Registry after changing my name by Deed Poll. I needed a solicitor to verify my identity. Alis responded quickly to my initial email and I was booked in to see them the next day. Alis and Andrew were friendly and professional as well as being fast and efficient. I would certainly contact them again for help I might need regarding wills and conveyancing.”

“Thanks to Faye’s guidance and expertise, I was able to navigate through Employee Settlement Agreement with confidence and peace of mind. The service was quick and efficient, the communication was great. Faye is very approachable and compassionate and I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

"Second time using the notory services. On both occasions they could not have been any better! From arranging an appointment to reception and consultation everything was handled smoothly and professionally.
I can seriously recommend the service!"

" I highly recommend Ben Madden and the whole team at Clarkson Wright & James solicitors firm. We have received brilliant advice and fantastic service for a rather complicated matter. Extremely professional, efficient, proactive and kind service all the way. We are really grateful for the services we received."

"I was lucky enough to come across CWJ at the beginning of a turbulent time. It hasn’t been an easy 4 years but I have finally reached my desired outcome which wouldn’t have been possible without Sandy’s advice and support. Sandy has been a pleasure to have alongside me during these proceedings.Couldn’t recommend enough!"
