Clinical Negligence

Position

Daniel is one of the country’s leading practitioners in dental negligence.

Daniel is frequently instructed to settle statements of case, advise on merits, quantum and evidence (both in writing and in conference), and draft agendas for expert meetings. He regularly appears in the County Court for CCMCs, interlocutory applications and PTRs. He is often instructed to negotiate settlements at various forms of ADR (including counsel to counsel discussions, joint settlement meetings and judicial-led mediations). He has also represented Claimants in multi-track trials.

Daniel’s experience extends beyond clinical and dental negligence to general (and sometimes obscure) disputes pertaining to the Civil Procedure Rules as well as costs litigation (having represented Claimants in detailed assessments).

Career

Before being called to the Bar in 2018, Daniel practised as a solicitor for more than a decade working in the specialist fields of clinical and dental negligence.
