A partner in our litigation division, Jenny specialises in personal injury and professional negligence.
If you suffer a loss due to the negligence of a professional adviser, you may be entitled to claim damages. If the professional adviser has failed to adhere to the recognised standards of his or her own profession, s/he may have been negligent. You may have suffered a financial loss, lost time, or you may have suffered from the loss of an opportunity.

We will give you realistic views on prospects of success right from the start and make sure we are clear about costs.

Clarity is at the heart of everything we do and we pride ourselves on transparent pricing. We will tell you at the outset how much our services will cost. We offer a range of feeing structures, including fixed fees. If it is not possible to provide a fixed fee we will give you a clear indication of the likely fee based on an agreed scope of work.
