Testimonials

Andrew Williams and the Prosperity Insurance team provide an efficient and transparent turnaround on ATE quotations and policies meaning that our clients can press on quickly and efficiently with their litigation to try and achieve the best possible result.

Nik Patel, Ward Hadaway LLP
Managing Associate

My firm have been working with Prosperity Insurance for over 5 years now, the service they provide is excellent, and the ATE insurer they have given us access to helps us enormously to progress cases. I have known Andrew Williams for over 7 years now, he is very forward thinking, transparent, knowledgeable and perhaps of most importance, trustworthy. We very much enjoy our working relationship with Prosperity and look forward to many more successful years’ together.

Alastair Wareham, Williams & Co
Partner

I've been working with Darren Parfitt at Prosperity Insurance for a short time but he has quickly become my go-to for indemnity quotes and I've recommended him to the rest of my firm as well. Indemnities are a crucial part of conveyancing and Prosperity Insurance consistently offers very competitively priced policies. They are always open to feedback and eager to improve their offerings. I recently asked about the possibility of introducing a new product and Darren managed to arrange it for me. He's always friendly, polite and goes out of his way to help. I highly recommend Darren and Prosperity Insurance!

Katrina Whyard, Burrows Solicitors
Solicitor

I find dealing with Prosperity Insurance very satisfying. They are responsive, knowledgeable, approachable and transparent. Chris and the team at Prosperity have many years of experience in the ATE sector and we look forward to continuing to work with them in the future. I would recommend them to any solicitor who is looking to place ATE policies.

Mark Carpenter, Law Link (ATE) Limited
Managing Director

We originally began using Prosperity Insurance for our Housing Condition work. Thereafter we found them, and their business development manager Mark Rayner, professional, helpful and pragmatic. It wasn’t long before we began moving other types of work to them as well. Always available to answer queries and always willing to help when we encounter more unusual scenarios.

Stuart Snape, Graham Coffey and Co Solicitors
Managing Partner

We have been using Prosperity Insurance now for a good while and find it pain free and without fuss. Andrew and his team have been on hand for any queries, and we look forward to working with them for the foreseeable future.

Simon Adamson, Slater Heelis LLP

I have worked with Prosperity Insurance now for a number of years as they offer a great knowledge of the ATE insurance sector and its Clinical Negligence products. They are also quick to respond to any requests that I make of them and I have also now introduced them into other teams and colleagues within my firm who deal with other case types such as RTA & Dispute Resolution.

Suzanne Cameron, DMA Law

Burton & Burton Solicitors have been dealing with Prosperity Insurance now for over 4 years and they operate a quick and efficient process when we require a be-spoke ATE insurance quotation. They are also very knowledgeable and experienced across this market sector which then helps to support the needs of our clients.

Shaida Aziz, Burton & Burton Solicitors

Prosperity Insurance backed us when we were a new firm due to our model with experienced solicitors and have watched us grow into a full medical negligence department. We are now sharing the rewards with them and thank them for all of their support from a hands-off approach with delegated authority and swift decision-making and payments when needed.

Gemma Hicks, Jordans Solicitors
Head of Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence

We have been working with Darren Parfitt and Palladium Indemnity insurance to provide residential conveyancing insurance policies now for several months. Throughout that time our experience of the company has been 1st class in terms of service and their prices are very competitive and they provide the majority of the policies any conveyancer needs AND their policy base is constantly expanding as more policies come online. Their online system is easy to use, and policies are available to download within seconds of ordering. All in all, our experience with Palladium has been excellent and we fully intend to continue with their services in the long term.

Adrian Noble, Key Legal
Managing Director

Working with Prosperity Insurance for indemnity insurance has been amazing. Darren walked me through the website and explained how it works which was very insightful. The website is very easy to use and has all the information you need. If any points of the policy need changing or you need clarification, the team are on hand to help with this and provide rapid responses which is great when you have tight timeframes.
