Our team can deal with the full spectrum of claims in negligence for personal injury, ranging from historic abuse claims to claims which involve life changing injuries.
We understand the trauma an injury and its consequences causes, and know that the process of dealing with a legal claim can be challenging. Our team handles all matters with the utmost sensitivity, carefully guiding our clients through the process.
We achieve the most cost-effective and favourable outcomes for our clients, whilst discreetly managing reputational risks and regulatory issues, whether its helping charities, businesses, public sector organisations or individuals in this complex and ever evolving area of law.
Relevant work:
Historic abuse allegations
We acted for a religious organisation in respect of a number of claims relating to allegations of historic abuse which involved a wide range of issues including complex vicarious liability arguments, reputational and limitation issues.
Claims for accidents
We advised a charity in respect of a personal injury claim relating to an accident which occurred at the charity’s premises.
Vicarious liability
We advised a charitable organisation in respect of a claim for vicarious liability in relation to historic abuse in circumstances where the organisation is unincorporated and uninsured. This raised a number of complex issues in relation to the potential personal liability of individual charity trustees.
Health and safety
We’ve advised many organisations on health and safety related investigations, including in respect of serious injuries and fatalities at work.
Serious injuries
We have acted for a number of individuals with life changing injuries from the loss of limbs to catastrophic brain injury.
