About
Provided by Deans Court Chambers
Deans Court Chambers has a vast experience in the preparation and presentation of highly technical and complex clinical negligence claims for damages for catastrophic injuries.
We are able to offer specialist advice and representation on behalf of both claimants and defendants at all stages of the litigation including joint settlement meetings and mediation. We provide detailed advice in relation to the merits of claims and the evidence required whether the issue is breach of duty, causation, the assessment of the value of the claim or a combination of some or all of these.
Where appropriate, we will accept instructions under individual conditional fee agreements.
Many of our barristers are active in the Personal Injury Bar Association [PIBA], and the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers [APIL].
The Deans Court Clinical Negligence team recent cases include, but are not limited to:-
- Catastrophic brain injury resulting from clinical mismanagement at birth: several recent settlements at or over £5 million;
