Paul has been involved in the legal industry for over 38 years initially as a claims handler but over the last 16 year as a Marketing and Business Development Manager. In Sorry Mate we promote ourselves and our services in a variety of different ways; outdoor exhibitions at regional events and local ride outs, indoor national exhibitions such as Motorcycle Live at the NEC, social media, sponsorships of riders, fund raising for various Air ambulances and relationships with other biker focused groups whether this be clubs, cafes, training academies, dealerships or insurers. My role is to oversee various aspects of maintaining the brand image and message and wherever possible enhancing our reputation.

My first experience on two wheeled power came via a purple FS1e at a very early on. The bike wasn’t mine but my best friends who had persuaded his Mum and Dad to buy him one. For anyone too young to know these bikes could be ridden under far different legislation than we see today. Basically if you applied and held a provisional driving licence (available to anyone over 16years of age) and the bike was under 50cc with pedals you were good to go. Sadly the experience didn’t end well with me sliding on some gravel and bending one of the bike pedals and my pride.

Since we’ve taken ownership of Sorry Mate exposure to biking has been exponential and with it a renewed interest. I’ve recently passed my CBT and am looking forward to booking my direct access courses as next steps. To this end we’ve bought an office Mutt, not the hairy kind but a Mutt Fat Sabbath 125cc which myself and two colleagues are looking to gain riding experience on to ensure we have sufficient confidence and training to take that next and crucial step to riding.

Phil has had a love for motorbikes from a very young age. He was raiding off-road until he could get his license in 1983 and has owned some of the fastest sports bikes over multiple decades. The need for speed took Phil to the racetrack, and he acquired his National Racing Licence at the tender age of 42. Phil Raced for Sorrymate in 2013 with our Senior Solicitor, Fergus. They were joined at various times by Jenny Tinmouth (BSB & TT), Kurt, and Matt Wigley (BSB) In 2018, Phil and the Sorrymate 600cc endurance Team achieved First Place in the ACU 8 Hour 600 Endurance Race at Donnington, where Phil averaged at 1:35.61 a lap, and 93.64mph on a Kawasaki ZX6R (127bhp)

You may have already met Phil at various motorbike shows all over the UK. Phil has been working for Sorrymate for over 12 years managing and coordinating the events team. Phil is an effortless ambassador for Sorrymate as he fully believes in getting other riders the very best help after a non-fault accident.
Phil has brought some very prestigious and honourable associations to work with us over the years, developing strong bonds with the Yorkshire Air Ambulance, Midlands, Essex & Herts, and the Great North Air Ambulance charities. Phil also spearheaded and solidified our ongoing relationship with the One Nine Four Six Marshals, MAG (Motorcycle Action Group) NABD (National Association for Disabled Bikers), creating friendships and business relations with tens of well know motorcycling companies and services.

Phil’s new baby is a Yamaha 2008 R1. Phil enjoys having no electronic rider aids on the 1000cc bike, developed with input from Valentino Rossi. Traction, brake, launch control and slipper clutch are all up to Phil as part of the ride. His pet hate: Other riders without proper riding gear, especially gloves….
