Clinical Negligence - London (Bar)
What the Team is Known For
39 Essex Chambers is considered a "top quality" set who have "real strength in depth". Its members bring "compassion and empathy" and are regularly called on to represent both injured claimants and defendants, such as NHS Resolution, healthcare insurers and several medical defence organisations, in the full range of clinical negligence claims. Members are experienced in the handling of complex cases involving allegations of negligent treatment and delayed and missed diagnoses, and are noted for their expertise in both individual and group actions. The set is also regarded as a go-to for difficult and high-value claims in developing areas of law, such as in AD v Frimley Hospital NHS Trust, a wrongful birth claim arising from failures to report genetic testing.
Jamie Tucker is the senior practice manager for clinical negligence, personal injury, litigation funding and costs.
