I specialise in liability claims acting for public bodies, insurers and self insured clients on personal injury and property damage claims, including public and employers liability. I also advise on complex disputes on insurance policy wordings and coverage, which often involves liaising between different insurers (and re-insurers) in relation to the same claim. Alongside my litigation practice, I am also a member of the firm's costs team which provides support and assistance for colleagues and external clients.
My aim is always to deal with claims efficiently and effectively, making sure that costs do not become disproportionate to the sums at stake. I provide focused, solutions-based advice, looking at all aspects of the claim and with the bigger picture in mind, rather than simply following the procedural steps. I always consider alternative means of resolving claims which invariably leads to speedier resolution and reduced costs.Claire Jones has an excellent ‘feel’ for individual cases, their likely outcome and shows high levels of adaptability as a result.
Claire is down to earth, has common sense and is very well respected.
Claire Jones has dealt with a number of our more complex cases this year. Claire has a huge wealth of knowledge and comes into her own when knowing how to balance our customer focused requirements against achieving the correct legal outcomes at the right cost to us as insurers.
