Profile
Thank you for taking the time to view my profile.
By reading on you will discover more about me and my trusted
practice, particularly in the fields of personal injury and
clinical negligence in which I have over 23 years of varied and
hard earned litigation experience.
I currently receive instructions from, amongst many others, the
top three ranked claimant and defendant firms of solicitors in
London; which neatly illustrates, in part, my standing in what is
undoubtedly a very competitive marketplace. Much of my work,
however, is still undertaken outside of London and I have always
enjoyed the support of solicitors, as well as direct professional
access, on a nationwide basis.
I bring a recognised team approach and ethos to cases in which I
am privileged to be instructed and I never lose sight of what my
client (whether lay or professional) is looking or wanting to
achieve. My aim is to turn my knowledge into value for the benefit
of the client.
As for my areas of operation, I act in any claim (above the fast
track limit) and over the years I have appeared in the higher and
lower courts, including the (now) Senior Court. While I
probably undertake as many multi-million pound claims each year as
any leading junior at the Bar, I continue always to treat each
claim, of whatever value or complexity, with the utmost
consideration, recognising that such cases have brought my practice
to where it is now.
I have set out, under the full CV subsection, what
commentators and publications have said about me over the past few
years (and for which remarks and comments I am most grateful).
I look forward to working together with those of you who
consider that I would be the right fit for your case and your legal
team. I believe experience has taught that what clients often
want are lawyers who can help them to avoid legal problems,
difficulties and disputes. While there is much to be said for
the proactive legal management of strategic risk, there will, for
the foreseeable future, be a need for strong court advocacy and the
dispensing of clearly communicated expert opinion advice from a
specialist barrister-advisor.
