Our Team

Michael Jefferies

Director

Michael qualified as a solicitor in November 1988, having graduated from Manchester University with a degree in Accountancy & Business Finance. He established Jefferies Solicitors in 1993 to specialise in personal injury & clinical negligence work. Michael & his partner sold Jefferies Solicitors in 2023, but Michael kept the 2 websites, which were Jefferies Solicitors, now rebranded Jefferies Claims & First Personal Injury.

Michael strongly believes that his new claims business should be run along the same high ethical & honest standards that served his law firm well for nearly 30 years. The panel of solicitors has been carefully chosen by Michael, partnering with firms who he knows will do a thoroughly professional job & get the best results for their clients.

At home, Michael is married with three grown-up children. He mentors sixth form students from local schools and, in his spare time, enjoys golf, walking, cycling, and socialising with family and friends.

She also worked as press officer for a UK based charity and joined our team as Digital Content Writer.
