I specialise in supporting clients who have been involved in motorcycle accidents where liability is being contested, litigated personal injury and claims which include complex causation.

Claims arise from a variety of circumstances including motorbike v car, pedestrian v car, slips and trips.

What I do

I appreciate following an accident which has resulted in a serious injury can be a daunting prospect. However my role is to ensure that my client’s claim is dealt with as professionally and expeditiously as possible, and that my clients receive the rehabilitation and advice they need to obtain a just settlement.

What I do

Although I deal with all aspect of serious injury, I am experienced and have a particular interest in supporting clients who have been involved in accidents that have resulted in serious orthopaedic injuries including amputations. I am a powerful advocate of rehabilitation as a fundamental component of serious injury litigation, and that the individual needs of an injured person must be at the centre of any legal representation. One of the most important things we do is to guide clients and their families through what is, for most people, one of the toughest and most challenging times of their lives.

A great achievement for me has been securing damages of over £3 million for a client who sustained significant and life changing injuries including a fracture of the right wrist, fracture of the right scapula, open fracture of the right femur leading to amputation, injury to the left knee, and a fracture of the left tibia and fibula leading to amputation.

I have a small case load of high value claims which are almost exclusively involving clients who have suffered a brain or spinal cord injury, a brachial plexus injury or an amputation. My aim is to provide a tailored service to each and every client so that their recovery is the best it possibly can be.

I also work alongside the best experts and barristers in their respective fields to ensure that our client’s cases are prepared as thoroughly as possible. We are able to do this due to the significant experience we have gained over the years.

A great achievement for me has been achieving a settlement of £6 million, with my team, for a client who had suffered a tetraplegic spinal cord injury in a motorcycle accident. In addition, the settlement allowed for the client to keep the funding he received from the state for his care needs which totalled over £100,000 a year.

What I do

Catastrophic injury claims are about more than securing compensation for the individual. I am of the view that rehabilitation has more value given that it represents an opportunity to make a material difference to the life of the seriously injured Claimant. I provide a full support service to clients, providing help wherever I can on issues which directly affect them and which are not necessarily connected with the claim. I work on claims with a value of over £500,000. The highest claim to date totaled £7m gross in terms of value.

A great achievement for me has been securing a settlement for an elderly gentleman who was involved in an accident whilst taking part in a classic car rally. The odds were very much stacked against him because he had pulled out of a side road in front of a large 4x4 pick-up truck, which was proceeding down the main road. Being in a classic car, my client was exempt from wearing a seatbelt (none were fitted to the car); as a result he was flung from his vehicle in the impact and sustained significant injuries. However I managed to secure a settlement for him at 75% in his favour because we were able to prove the pick-up driver took no action at all to try and avoid the collision. Tenacity and a ‘never give up’ attitude won the day.
