Lionel Stride

Practice Areas

Lionel Stride has a highly diverse High Court and multi-track practice focused predominantly on serious and catastrophic personal injury (arising out of accidents at home and abroad), clinical negligence (including claims arising out of poor obstetric and gynaecological care, birth injuries (such as cerebral palsy), failure to treat or prevent stroke, surgical negligence and other cases resulting in maximum disability) and group litigation (predominantly arising out of defective medical products), with complementary expertise in aviation (covering Montreal Convention cases, airline disasters both abroad and in the UK, as well as helicopter and light aircraft accidents) and product liability (particularly in the context of prosthetic and medical/surgical equipment failures but extending to other complex matters such as kit-made aircraft). Lionel regularly deals with cases valued well into seven figures and has a balanced case load acting for both claimants and defendants across each of his areas of practice.
