Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence in Jersey
We are the leading personal injury and clinical negligence firm in Jersey. Our specialist team of lawyers has acted in virtually every complex or high value claim in the Island over the last 20 years. We are one of only a small handful of firms which has a dedicated personal injury and clinical negligence team. Our experience and expertise in this area is unrivalled in Jersey.
We act for both plaintiffs and defendants. The experience of acting for both gives us a greater knowledge and appreciation of the field as a whole and enhances our ability to provide sound, commercial advice to all our clients, whether bringing or defending a claim. Our lawyers are at the forefront of the development of the law in this area in Jersey. Our team has appeared in virtually all of the leading cases over the last two decades. These have set down the principles for the assessment of damages, by which the limits of liability have been set, and which have clarified and improved how claims are dealt with procedurally.
We act for individuals, leading insurers and medical defence organisations, providing expert advice across the full spectrum of personal injury and clinical negligence claims. We have experience in bringing and defending claims concerning motor accidents, workplace accidents, occupier’s liability, product liability, fatal accidents and clinical negligence.
We have particular experience in catastrophic injury claims, having acted for plaintiffs and defendants in some of the largest, most complex, claims ever to come before the Jersey courts. We have been instructed in cases concerning brain injury, spinal injury, amputation and limb loss and claims arising from serious medical errors – where the amount of compensation can be very large. In smaller claims our expertise means that they are dealt with efficiently and cost effectively.
In every case, whether large or small, and whoever the client, we bring to bear true expertise, specialism and dedication.
