Praised by clients for its ‘experience and humanity’, Serious Injury Law Limited specialises in catastrophic brain injury claims. Ben Priestley, Tim Walters, and Matthew Dixon lead the team. As a ‘distinguished’ advocate, Priestley routinely represents both adults and children in cases concerning cerebral palsy, fatal accidents, and spinal cord injuries, and Walters often acts for Court of Protection clients, advising on deputyship issues. Oliver Shaw handles a range of road traffic accident related claims, where claimants have sustained severe orthopaedic and traumatic brain injuries. Jonathan Syddall left the firm in May 2023. Chris Lecky is a key name for traumatic brain injury cases.
