Since our inception in 1921, Thompsons Solicitors has stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the Labour and trade union movement, representing more unions in the UK than any other law firm. We’ve used the law to enforce workers’ rights – and fight for those they should have – for nearly 100 years.

We’ve supported thousands of COP members, and their families, by providing free legal advice when they have suffered an injury or injustice. As a point of principle throughout our history, we have only ever acted on behalf of the injured or mistreated – never for employers and never for insurance companies.
