Sussex firm Griffith Smith Farrington Webb takes pride in offering a full range of legal services. But it draws the line at drive-in personal injury clients. So staff were relieved that nobody was hurt when an elderly lady lost control of her Toyota Yaris and arrived in the Hassocks branch through the front window last week. Senior partner Nick Evans said: ‘The staff had a lucky escape as they were all in the back, and fortunately there were no clients in reception.’ The driver was also uninjured.
