I am a liability insurance lawyer advising major insurers and corporate clients in accident claims, with a particular emphasis on high value, multi-party and complex cases. I am experienced in dealing with insurance coverage disputes and cases involving fraud, as well as handling road traffic, property damage and product liability claims. I am also a recognised specialist in disease claims. I have successfully repudiated asbestos disease claims for clients using various arguments on limitation, breach of duty and causation.
