Veterans OK - the new legal advice platform for the armed forces community

Hilary Meredith Solicitors has launched a new, groundbreaking legal advice platform for armed forces service personnel, veterans and their families.

www.veteransok.co.uk provides the armed forces community with access to free legal advice and guidance. The platform allows service personnel, veterans and their families to arrange one-to-one consultations with specialist military solicitors. The Veterans OK team can advise on all areas of military law including accidents and death in service, AFCS claims and reconsiderations and pension mis-selling.

Members of the Veterans OK team are vastly experienced with founder Hilary Meredith-Beckham having previously run a hugely successful legal advice clinic, at the request of the military welfare teams, for injured service personnel and veterans at DMRC Stanford Hall and Headley Court.

The team also has long-standing relationships with the charities and organisations best placed to provide advice and support across all areas of life on Civvy Street.

Commenting on the launch of Veterans OK, Hilary Meredith-Beckham said:

“We believe service personnel, veterans and their families should receive high quality, independent legal advice whenever and wherever they need it. Our new legal advice platform, Veterans OK, makes this a reality, providing one-to-one support.”

To mark its launch, Veterans OK has appointed Brian Wood MC as an ambassador. Brian Wood MC is a highly decorated former British Army soldier, renowned for his extraordinary bravery and leadership during his military service. Awarded the Military Cross for his exemplary courage in the face of enemy fire during the Battle of Danny Boy in Iraq, Brian's actions have become emblematic of heroism and dedication. Beyond his professional endeavours, Brian is deeply committed to charity work, particularly supporting veterans and their families, demonstrating his ongoing commitment to service and community.

Said Brian:

“I am proud to act as an Ambassador to Veterans OK. This fantastic new platform will make a life-changing difference to service personnel, veterans and their families worldwide. The entire armed forces community can now access the very best legal advice and guidance.”
