‘Fieldfisher are truly the best in the business. The whole firm operates seamlessly. Paul McNeil and Nilam Patel worked together on my case, and both were reachable and knowledgeable. It was a seamless experience talking to either of them, they were always up-to-date with everything and are both phenomenal. Their administration team was top-class as well. Why go anywhere else?’

‘Paul McNeil is rightly regarded as a titan in the clinical negligence field. He acted with the utmost skill, care, and integrity to ensure that I can receive the care I need. Nilam Patel is also incredible, a first-class lawyer and no doubt a future big-hitter in the clinical negligence field. She handled my case with great adaptability, overcoming all the challenges we faced.’

‘Attention to detail is superb. The team immerse themselves in your matter and make sure all angles are covered, not just the immediate back and forth but the strategic thinking going forward – often three or four steps ahead. Combined with this, is a human desire to get to know you and the predicament your family is in and genuinely showing care and compassion – it brings an added sense that there is a drive and passion to get the best outcome.’

‘Samantha Critchley is head and shoulders above her peer group. Bright, dynamic, caring and ferociously hard working. You always want Sam in the room or at the table.’

‘Iona Meeres-Young has been a great professional support to us. She explained the process very clearly to us at each stage and would sum up and simplify medical terms and next stages of the case. Iona remained confident that our case was going in the right direction and with all evidence and the professional team of experts she instructed, she reached such a positive outcome for our son that has truly changed his life already. We cannot thank her enough and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to other parents in the future.’

‘This is the best team in the country. An excellent ethos driving case after case to successful conclusion, and doing so with very great care and thoroughness, but also speed. The team is exceptionally well led. It has wide and deep experience. There is utter commitment. It operates within a city firm, so has the mentality and resources in funding and personnel that few can match, and which it routinely deploys.’

‘Paul McNeil is the leading litigator in this field: highly intelligent, vastly experienced, entirely dedicated to each client, and relentlessly hard-working. He is assisted by a deep bench. Iona Meeres-Young is an absolutely excellent litigator with a calm, highly intelligent and pragmatic approach which shines through. Samantha Critchley is another excellent and vastly experienced litigator – dedication and thoroughness personified. Mark Bowman is an extremely able, intelligent, efficient and effective litigator. Jonathan Zimmern is fully prepared to take on the most ground-breaking cases. Kate Rohde is a hugely experienced lateral thinker. Jane Weakley is a really terrific lawyer, Deborah Nadel is another who has the very highest standards and Arti Shah is one to watch. The team is packed with excellent lawyers.’

‘All the London partners deserve a mention and high praise.

They all deserve very high praise for the work they do.’

‘Irwin Mitchell’s clinical negligence team is definitely one of the best in the London area. They are a large national team delivering a consistently high service to their clients. They really do have strength and depth in delivering for their clients. I see them investing in diversity, technology and innovation, and they care both about their clients and their people.’

‘Leena Savjani was the main solicitor on my case and a constant over the years the case ran. I was always kept updated. She understood at times how hard certain aspects of the case were and gave support. She knows all my family and felt like a friend and was always on call to ask any question, it was never too much trouble. Going through a case like this is hard enough but having a solicitor like Leena made it so much easier from the support she gave dealing with the case.’

‘I regard Irwin Mitchell as the ‘go-to’ firm for claimant clinical negligence. The department has very experienced senior practitioners to call on; Alison Eddy is a force to be reckoned with. The work ethos in the department is second-to-none, and the teams deliver a high quality of service. They ensure that their clients’ voices are heard and their claims assiduously investigated. The department’s caseload includes high-value matters of the utmost complexity, including multi-million pound cerebral palsy and spinal injury claims. Further, Irwin Mitchell has excellent contacts with leading medico-legal experts who can be called on to assist their clients.’

She adopts a sensitive but pragmatic approach which clients appreciate and she is so accessible to counsel and clients alike. She keeps so many plates spinning, with a positive and upbeat disposition.’

‘Leigh Day has been, in my opinion, probably the premier claimant clinical negligence firm for the last 20 years and maintains this position today. One of its great advantages is the diversity of the work which the firm does as a whole, which is helpful when clinical negligence claims overlap with other areas of law.’

‘Leigh Day are the premier claimant-focused clinical negligence firm in London. They have the winning formula: an excellent reputation; true expertise in the field; experience in all types of clinical negligence claims; passion for their work; complete dedication to their clients; and a fantastic team ethos.

He is incredibly bright, intellectually rigorous and maintains a keen involvement in his cases.

Added to this, he is warm and sympathetic towards his clients. He is everything that you would want in a clinical negligence practitioner.’

‘Jenny Kennedy is awe-inspiring: a true ruthless fighter. Samuel David is immensely bright: a true tactician, I’ve never seen such impressive client-handling skills, putting clients at ease and explaining complex matters in a clear, concise and understandable way to his catastrophically injured clients – pragmatic and honest. Jon Nicholson is the biggest brain in the business: kind and empathetic, showing genuine compassion for his terribly injured clients.’

‘The team have been incredibly supportive throughout the whole case thus far. As a result of my disability, it has been difficult to provide timescales for the provision of quantum evidence and so on. The team understand that the case needs to progress in a timely fashion, but they also put my health first.’

Kate O’Brien is a rising star with a natural touch for the more complex clinical negligence cases; her client care is wonderful and she is a dream to have on the team.’

‘An absolutely outstanding team, with a particular sub-speciality in child birth brain injuries. The level of dedication, determination and ability they demonstrate in each case is exceptional. There are no weak links at the firm and I have recommended them on a number of occasions to trusted friends and family members.’

‘For me, Caroline Klage is the best birth brain injury solicitor in the country. I have never come across another solicitor so hardworking, passionate, knowledgeable and caring. She is absolutely remarkable and would always be my first recommendation in this field. Her team members are also outstanding. Claudia Hillemand is brilliant and her experience is this field is second to none.’

‘This practice is unique because even the people who are not working on your case are ready to help. They provide a first-class service. I really felt like I was part of the family. They cared about me and my son, their client, who has severe disabilities. I was kept updated on the billing. I also noticed that the firm is very diverse and so are its clients.’

‘Emma Wray was not just a solicitor for my son, but has gone beyond her call of duty to support us when we needed help.

The team has both medical and legal experience and extensive contacts with experts and counsel.
