POA

Thompsons is proud to partner the POA. We actively campaign alongside the union to promote the benefits of membership while delivering first-class legal services to members.

Unlike high street law firms, who can make deductions of up to 25% of damages, Thompsons guarantees that working and retired POA members and their families will retain 100% of any personal injury compensation secured.

Our work with the POA includes landmark rulings and we have extensive experience of successfully representing POA members involved in workplace assaults, securing hundreds of thousands of pounds in compensation for what are often career-ending injuries.

Your comprehensive legal package covers:

• Personal injuries, at or away from work, on the roads or on holiday
• Serious injuries, including brain or spinal cord injuries
  
• Industrial diseases, including asbestos-related diseases
• Employment law advice (accessed via your branch)
• Settlement agreements
• Work-related criminal law advice (call the 24-hour criminal law helpline on 0800 587 7530)
• Online wills service (Scotland based members can start their will here)
• Special terms for clinical negligence
• Special terms for conveyancing, probate and power of attorney.

Your family is also covered for:

• Personal injuries away from work, on the roads or on holiday
• Special terms for clinical negligence
• Special terms for conveyancing, probate and power of attorney.
