Professional negligence

Our litigation practice assists individuals who have been negligently advised by their professional advisers - typically lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, investment advisers, appraisers and surveyors.

Our team has the unique advantage of being able to draw on the trusts, tax, estates, probate, family and residential property lawyers in claims that involve those areas in the UK, Europe and US.

Achieving the best possible outcome for our clients in a cost-effective manner is often managed through the use of alternative dispute resolution techniques.

Clients include both individuals acting as trustees and those bringing claims on their own behalf. They come from all over the world, especially Europe, the US, and the Middle and Far East.
