Personal Injury/Clinical Negligence
Whether it be the intricacies of clinical negligence causation, the thorny question of local authority case provision under the National Assistance Act 1948 in high value care claims, tricky issues over negligent exposure or industrial disease cases or the potential pitfalls in whiplash/tripper claims, the PI/clinical negligence team tackle the same with professionalism and enthusiasm you would expect from leading civil practitioners.
Our cases range from the most modest to the most serious with a team that encompasses those from the early days of tenancy to respected senior junior and silk practitioners.
We have experience in acting on behalf of both Claimant and Insurance clients, and are at home with the funding requirements of both, including conditional fee arrangements (please see attached for our terms and conditions). We pride ourselves on the assistance our Counsel can bring to the successful management of the claim whether it be by way of advocacy and formal advice, or simply a quick chat on the phone to assist on a difficult point of detail. We cover all the major areas of work, including:
- Road Traffic Accidents
- Industrial Disease
- Asbestos Related Diseases
- Employer Liability Claims
- Public Liability
- Professional Negligence
- Accidents at Work
- Accidents in Public Places
- Workplace Illness
