Professional negligence requires proving duty, breach, causation, and loss—often involving expert evidence on professional standards. We conduct rigorous technical analysis identifying actionable negligence and quantifying recoverable losses.
Successful professional negligence claims depend on compelling expert evidence. We work with leading professional experts across all disciplines—building persuasive cases on breach of duty and causation supported by credible expert testimony.
Professional negligence claims typically involve professional indemnity insurance. We coordinate with insurers, manage coverage issues, and navigate policy limits to maximise recovery prospects while managing defendants' insurance positions strategically.
Professional negligence litigation is expensive. We pursue proportionate strategies including early settlement negotiation and mediation where appropriate—achieving cost-effective outcomes while maintaining the option of robust litigation when necessary.
Dedicated professional negligence practice with expertise across all professional disciplines including solicitors, accountants, surveyors, and financial advisers.
Track record of substantial damages recovery in high-value professional negligence claims including multi-million pound settlements and trial awards.
