Browne Jacobson: was the position attributed to insurer solicitors yours?
Browne Jacobson LLP was named by Seldons as HDI Global’s agents on 9 January 2026, with Gary Oldroyd as the contact. Browne Jacobson’s official profile identifies Oldroyd as an Exeter partner in its financial and professional risk team. His precise instructions in this matter are among the questions—not an assumption.
Seldons said on 1 April that its insurer’s solicitors agreed the proposed claims were clearly vexatious and were content for the firm to respond directly. Were you those solicitors? Had you received the underlying documents, and did you authorise that description of your position?
The family’s fraud allegations concern the underlying conduct of Seldons and its solicitors. This page asks the named insurance organisation to account for its receipt, role and records; it does not attribute that alleged fraud to the organisation merely because it was named.
The firm’s own words make the notification record material.
Mr J requested insurance details in the notice emailed on 8 January. Seldons named HDI Global and Browne Jacobson on 9 January. Cornwell then requested a letter before claim for insurers on 24 March; Miss E supplied two on 27 March. On 1 April the firm asserted that insurer solicitors had been notified.
