Thompsons Solicitors have been working for the Trades Union Congress and fighting for workers’ rights since their inception; they are the biggest UK law firm specializing in claims for compensation in cases involving workplace injuries and disputes and this book chronicles the firm’s development and discusses Thompsons’s involvement with the Labour Research Department and the National Council for Civil Liberties. Examining a variety of cases—including the Poplar Borough Council case, the Meerut Trials of 1929, and many others involving members of the Labour and Communist parties—this account will be of interest to lawyers; solicitors; and legal, labor, and social historians.
