At Rothera Bray Solicitors, we are incredibly proud to be celebrating our 200-year history, with the release of a short film as part of our bicentennial campaign. The film reflects on our legacy while unveiling our ambitious plans for 2025.

Maternity services across the UK have been under scrutiny for a number of years and at Rothera Bray we speak with many families who have suffered poor and potentially negligent care from Trusts around the country.  Poor maternity care can have a devastating impact including life-limiting injuries or death of a baby, and physical and psychological harm to the mother.
