Personal Injury: Industrial Disease - All Circuits

Band 1
Band 1

Individual Editorial

James Murphy of Parklane Plowden is an industrial disease specialist with vast experience handling occupational cancer and asbestos-related injury claims. He is also regularly instructed in HAVS and NIHL claims. Cases involving complex issues surrounding causation are one of his key areas of strength.

Strengths

He always provides astute, incisive and clear advice that goes to the heart of each matter.

James is a highly skilled and knowledgeable advocate. His calm manner puts clients and witnesses at ease, and I have never seen him rattled by anything thrown at him.
