About
Provided by Jacob Levy KC
Practice Areas
All aspects of personal injury and clinical negligence work, particularly cases involving gynaecological, spinal, orthopaedic and brain injuries. From misplaced swabs to spinal injuries to birth accidents; as with his approach to personal injury work his motto used to be: 'No case too big-no case too small.' In Silk he has recalibrated this to: 'Big, Bigger and Bigger Still...oh my!' The bulk of Jacob’s personal injury work comprises spiners, minors, brainers and rear-end shunters -all with catastrophic consequences. Known for his sympathetic and empathetic manner - Jacob continues to work through all hours to get the job done. He also undertakes professional negligence cases; specifically personal injury and clinical negligence claims that have gone awry.

Personal
Increasing workload has hijacked his free time - so thank goodness for boxsets. Otherwise; fanatical film and music buff, failed but ongoing screenwriter and gig-goer. His byline is: 'Eat football, sleep football practice PI and Clin Neg'. And settle Schedules of Loss -endlessly. Jacob still operates as the Gigmeister General–and continues to watch old, re-formed, re-warmed Punk, New Wave and Blues bands whilst drinking single malt.
