Practice Areas
Victoria Webb specialises in personal injury (including clinical negligence), regulatory, inquests and inquiries.
Victoria’s busy personal injury practice comprises acting for both claimants and defendants in fast and multi-track matters. She has solid experience in employer’s liability, public liability, defective premises and RTA matters, and cases raising issues of exaggeration or fundamental dishonesty. She is experienced in higher value multi-track claims, including those involving chronic pain and fatal accidents, and those involving psychiatric injury. She is also experienced in relation to claims concerning non-recent sexual grooming and abuse of minors in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s by employees or volunteers in school and club settings.
Victoria has regularly appeared at the Criminal Injuries Compensation Appeal tribunal, most recently representing the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) at both First-tier and Upper Tribunal hearings. She also has solid inquest experience (including jury inquests and Article 2 inquests).
She is currently instructed on the Undercover Policing Inquiry on behalf of the Home Office.
Victoria’s practice had a focus on employment law for several years, which experience she draws on in her current practice.
Career
Prior to coming to the Bar, she worked for human rights organisations with a focus on Russia, carrying out research, media work and lobbying at intergovernmental organisations.
