We are pleased to announce that our Head of Serious Injury, Martin Usher, has been appointed as head of our London office. This is a key step as we continue to invest in our presence in the capital.
Martin, who joined us as a partner in May 2021, takes on the role following our move to the 19th floor of The Shard last year. Our London office is almost 25% larger than our previous space, and provides a modern, agile working environment designed to support more than 160 people.
As London office head, Martin will work with colleagues to further develop the office, strengthen relationships with clients and referrers, and support the firm’s continued growth in the capital.
Martin said: “I’m delighted to take on the role of London office head at such an exciting time for Lime Solicitors.
“The move to The Shard has given us a fantastic base in the capital and reflects the firm’s continued investment in London.
“I’m looking forward to working with the team to build on the progress we’ve made, strengthen our relationships, and continue growing our presence in the city.”
Mark Beesley, managing director of Ampa Group’s portfolio brands added “Martin’s appointment is an important step for our London office as we continue to build on our investment in the capital.
“His depth of experience, strong understanding of the needs of our clients and commitment to delivering the right support make him an excellent choice to lead the office. He brings a clear sense of purpose to the role and a strong understanding of what we want to achieve in London.
“With our new home at The Shard and a growing team, we are well placed to build on our presence in the capital. Martin will play an important role in bringing that ambition to life, strengthening our relationships and ensuring we continue to put our clients at the heart of everything we do.”

He acts exclusively for people who have sustained serious injuries and has experience in traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, complex musculoskeletal injuries and amputations. He also has experience in fatal accident claims and claims involving accidents abroad.
Alongside his legal work, Martin is a committee member of the Major Trauma Group and a trustee of Headway South West London, having previously served as a trustee and chair of Headway Southampton.
