Becky Hill

Becky Hill has joined law firm Thompsons Solicitors to manage the 43-strong team at its Nottingham office, supporting specialists dealing with claims for personal injury and employment issues.

Hill worked at NatWest in customer service whilst training to be a lawyer. She was called to the Bar in 2005, after which she took on litigation roles in a number of law firms.

In 2010, she moved to the National Accident Helpline (NAH) and over 11 years worked her way up to operations director, a position she held from 2019. As well as managing NAH she was instrumental in setting up National Accident Law, which saw NAH managing its own personal injury cases rather than relying on outside law firms.

Hill said: “My parents instilled in me the importance of good values, and from my first job at NatWest to today, my motto has been ‘do the right thing’ – so working with colleagues to develop the next generation of talent has been my driver.”
