We bring in-depth health and safety legal advice to help clients navigate their way through the full range of issues from compliance and governance to criminal prosecutions and inquests.
Clients value our sector expertise as part of our 24/7 emergency response and crisis management offering which brings together seamless multidisciplinary delivery.
Our expertise in the rail sector is unparalleled, including advising on every major UK rail accident since privatisation including Southall, Ladbroke Grove, Potters Bar, and Croydon.
We understand the pressures clients are under and the landscape they operate in, including a fast-changing regulatory environment, financial considerations, and reputational implications. We are well-placed to provide tailored legal advice that they can rely on and depend on, as we have sight of the whole picture.
Our service supports clients across health and safety investigations and enforcement proceedings brought by the police and regulators including enforcement notices and prosecutions, investigations conducted by independent safety investigatory bodies such as Rail Accidents Investigation Branch and Air Accidents Investigation Branch, inquests, internal investigations and regulatory compliance advisory work.
