Case Study: Hudgell Solicitors achieves scalable, paper‑free case management and faster case progression with Access Group

Access Legal provides personal injury giant Hudgell Solicitors with a decade of adaptability

Hudgell Solicitors, a top-150 UK personal injury firm with over 100 staff and offices in Hull, Leeds and London, needed a scalable, adaptable practice management system to support rapid growth, streamlined workflows and a move toward paper-free operations. Partnering with Access Group, Hudgell implemented Access Legal (including Proclaim) to meet firm-specific needs, improve data analysis and speed up client onboarding.

Access Group configured Access Legal with customised screens, MIWH reporting and SecureDocs online delivery, enabling Hudgell Solicitors to run real-time reports, monitor ROI, export and zip files for partners, and onboard clients "within a matter of minutes." The solution cut hours of manual work, accelerated case progression through electronic document handling, and supported the firm’s expansion across three offices — demonstrating measurable efficiency gains and sustained operational scalability.
