I handle a wide range of claims including head injuries, amputation, complex orthopaedic injuries, chronic pain as well as occupational disease.

I specialise in employer’s liability claims and am an acknowledged expert in cases involving repetitive strain injury(RSI), work related upper limb disorders (WRULD’s) and vibration syndromes such as HAVS and carpal tunnel syndrome.

My attention to detail and expert investigative skills have assisted a multitude of clients seeking redress for injuries suffered in the workplace including claims for cumulative injuries (RSI) and vibration syndromes. I endeavour to be calm, persistent and fully prepared to tackle tricky points of legal argument at all times.
