Lawyer Rankings
Wales > Insurance > Professional negligence
Appreciated for their ‘razor-sharp commerciality and warm collaborative working style’, which draws upon access to an impressive wider commercial litigation offering, Capital Law Limited ‘can draw on excellent talent and capabilities in professional negligence claims’. Having recently joined the firm from the Serious Fraud Office, Phillippa Ellis – who splits her time between the firm’s fledging London office and Cardiff – is ‘well suited to professional negligence claims and claims against professionals involving fraud’, adding further breadth and depth to the team’s growing offering in the space. Leveraging ‘a clear-eyed understanding of the commercial pressures that can be used in a professional negligence claim’, Lucy Emanuel regularly advises on high-profile matters, including many which have been funded utilising the firm’s own litigation fund. Litigation finance expert, Andrew Brown co-heads the overarching team alongside Stephen Meade , who has experience at handling property-related professional negligence claims, in particular. The arrival in February 2022 of David Hudson from Eversheds Sutherland (International) LLP has enhanced the team as a result of his ‘real breadth and depth of experience in complex professional negligence claims’.
