Weightmans LLP

Weightmans LLP’s London-based team forms a key part of the firm’s national personal injury offering, handling a steady stream of high-value catastrophic injury, public liability, and employer’s liability claims. The group is regularly instructed by major insurers and public bodies, often in claims involving severe brain injury, amputation, spinal damage, and complex multi-party liability. Philip Tracey is noted for his work in catastrophic injury and sports-related claims, including ongoing concussion litigation. Seva Singh is experienced in cases involving disputed capacity, interim payments, and high-value spinal and neurological trauma, while Catherine Kearney acts on a range of amputation, fatal, and pain-related injury claims, particularly those involving children. Shaun Lavery has a focus on subtle brain injury and fatal claims, often appearing as advocate in High Court hearings. The team also benefits from EU-wide personal injury and coverage expertise through Simon Ball, while Patricia Williams leads on cases with high-value reserves involving liability disputes and cross-claims.
