Roger has for many years been instructed exclusively on behalf of insurers and defence. Roger’s practice historically has been motor vehicle related. He is Head of the Civil Fraud & Credit Hire Team at Deka Chambers.

Roger has been at the forefront of raising before the judiciary the concept of claims layering and fundamental dishonesty; e.g. the widely reported and commented leading case of Khan v Aviva [2022] 11 WLUK 663. In recognition of his work, Roger reached the shortlist for Barrister of the Year at the prestigious Legal Business Awards 2023.
