Ewan Tant is a Partner specialising in asbestos-related claims.
Ewan works on a large caseload and regularly deals with cross-jurisdictional cases, including in New Zealand, Australia, Ireland and Spain.
Ewan has had many successes in claims involving tricky and novel points of law, including a recent success in settling a case involving secondary exposure from the Claimant’s mother’s overalls, which had previously been turned down by two leading firms. He has had success in silicosis cases, including recently representing a man who worked as a sandblaster for many years, including on blockbuster film sets, who later developed a rare form of silicosis.
Ewan’s strengths lie in his dedication to client care, his technical knowledge, his drafting skills and his tenacity in dealing with Defendants, particularly in settlement negotiations. Ewan conducts his own advocacy in hearings and applications. Ewan regularly instructs leading counsel in complex cases and has lectured at medical and legal seminars. He has provided training to medical professionals, including giving talks at the Royal Brompton Hospital and at Derriford Hospital in Plymouth.
