Bio
  • BiografĂ­a

    Will specialises in complex, multi-track employers liability and public liability accident, industrial disease and stress claims. Will is also highly experienced in advising clients on specialist issues including claims for compensation and other remedies arising from alleged discrimination, false imprisonment, breach of human rights and deprivation of liberty together with other claims involving complaints of mental anguish. He has over 10 years’ experience advising clients across a range of sectors including manufacturing, logistics and the public sector. Will’s key clients include blue chip companies, a large public body and a number of large insurance companies.

    Will’s cases involve complex injury issues and often involve underlying medical conditions affecting causation, requiring a forensic and thorough analysis of the evidence.

    Will is a trusted advisor for his clients who rely upon his pragmatic, commercially focussed advice and support throughout the claim process. He also provides risk management advice through analysis of MI, assisting clients in identifying claim trends. Will is recognised by his clients for his attention to detail and keen eye on managing indemnity spend.

    Will drives strong partnerships with clients, supporting them with training and claims surgeries on all aspects of personal injury.

    Relevant experience includes advising:

    • An offshore Insurer on a claim involving complex jurisdiction issues in an Employers Liability Claim. Will successfully obtained an Order setting aside a previous Order which had permitted service of the proceedings outside of the UK’s jurisdiction. This gave the Claimant no choice but to abandon the claim.
    • A public sector organisation on complex issues of quantum in a catastrophic spinal injury claim, with damages estimated by the Claimant at over £3 million. Damages were successfully negotiated at a JSM at £1 million.
    • A major insurer in the defence of a claim for damages for discrimination on the grounds of disability in a children’s play centre, resulting in a Trial win and costs award in our client’s favour.
    Will regularly contributes to articles on important and topical legal issues and works closely with clients to drive innovation and formulate risk prevention strategies.
