Standing With Those Who Served: Sidley Partners With the Royal British Legion to Support Injured Veterans

November 6, 2025

Sidley is pleased to announce that we are partnering with the Royal British Legion to support injured service personnel in making claims under the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme. Through this collaboration, Sidley lawyers are providing pro bono support to help veterans and serving members of the armed forces navigate the often-complex claims process and secure the compensation to which they are entitled. This exciting collaboration forms part of Sidley’s ongoing pro bono commitment to supporting service personnel and veterans, and continues our commitment to providing legal assistance to those who have served their country.

This initiative is led by pro bono counsel Louise McCarthy and Matthew Shankland, partner and chair of the Pro Bono Committee in London, and currently includes 14 volunteer lawyers providing support.
