“I am motivated to understand not only a client’s business, but also them as people”

“I work with insurers who often have an international book of medical malpractice work. I love that one of the core values of insurance is relationships, and I really enjoy building and fostering those relationships with our clients.

I am told that I am friendly and personable. I like to know all aspects of the case very well, take a robust yet commercial approach, and provide detailed and clear advice.

I try to understand people’s needs to make their lives easier. I am motivated to understand not only a client’s business, but also them as people, so that we can work collaboratively together to achieve the best outcome.”

James’ recent work highlights:

Acting for a sonographer in the defence of a multimillion-pound wrongful birth claim.

Acting for a team doctor in a professional rugby league team in the defence of alleged breaches of the GRTP protocol resulting in a concussion injury. 

Acting for a cosmetic surgery company in the defence of multiple claims for alleged negligent cosmetic surgery.
