A leading Oswestry law firm has paid tribute to a former colleague following his death.
GHP Legal said it was deeply saddened by the passing of Rob Jones, who spent 33 years as a key member of the firm's Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence team before retiring in January 2025.
As a litigation executive, Jones provided caseload support to solicitors and was involved in hundreds of personal injury compensation claims during his career.

He originally joined Oswestry law firm Brown & Lloyd in June 1991, remaining with the business when it merged with Gwilym Hughes & Partners in 2000.
The firm later rebranded as GHP Legal.
Jones worked on cases from the initial instruction through to court and became well known among clients and colleagues, as well as medical professionals and barristers.
The firm said he was known for his empathetic approach to clients and for helping them achieve the best possible outcomes with the least pain.
John Hulme, a partner at GHP Legal and head of Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence at its Oswestry office, said: "Rob was a highly valued member of our team, and a true friend to many within the firm.
"Always helpful, reliable and relatable, he was greatly missed for his positive attitude and wonderful sense of humour when he retired.
"It is so very sad that his well-earned retirement ended too soon.
"Our thoughts, prayers, and heartfelt condolences go out to Rob’s family, friends, and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time."
