Increasing movement around the globe brings evolving risks to businesses and our company can assist with differing legislation, compliance, investigation and defence strategy. As an organisation we support clients by planning against incidents across the globe. We are acutely aware of the nuances and respective challenges faced in different sectors and we work collaboratively with you to prepare and plan for these risks effectively, whether you are a multinational corporation or a small business.

Health, Safety and Regulatory Enquiries

We have dedicated teams that are immersed solely in this area and act for insurers, brokers, businesses, local authorities, health trusts, emergency services and care homes. We are experienced in representing clients before police and regulatory bodies.

Members firms have advised on the most serious corporate manslaughter cases, as well as gross negligence prosecutions, fatal accident investigations, high profile inquests, public enquiries and serious driving offence prosecutions. Our service begins the day an incident occurs, at which point we provide a commercial and efficient response and work with you to protect your business.

Casualty

Incidents leading to injury can be an everyday occurrence and can seriously impact the heart of an organisation, its reputation, brand and profitability. We work collaboratively with you to prepare and plan for these risks in an efficient and timely manner, should they arise.

Members of our company specialise in investigating and defending casualty claims and offer extensive knowledge of the specific liability issues that arise in particular sectors such as construction, retail & leisure, travel, manufacturing, transport & logistics and the public sector, among others. Imbedded in this experience is advising on conflicts of laws and jurisdiction issues in multinational disputes.

Our multi-jurisdictional approach has been very helpful in assisting insurers in large casualty claims where the geographical location of the casualty differed from the nationality of the victim, with consequential differentiations in the calculation of the level of compensation.

Our end-to-end service includes pre-litigation and litigation, a dedicated fraud team and legal costs services. At every stage, our lawyers around the world work to quality and supervision controls, efficient workflows and adopt early case strategies to drive the resolution of claims whilst controlling lifecycles and indemnity spend.
