Boyes Turner has a demonstrably strong record on high value and both medically and legally complex cases of maximum severity. Critical brain injuries, including child brain injuries, and cerebral palsy claims comprise the bulk of the team’s caseload. Pre-eminent clinical negligence lawyer and brain injury expert Susan Brown leads the practice, specialising in child brain injury arising from birth asphyxia and trauma. Richard Money-Kyrle is ‘an unflappable personality who is calm under pressure and secures great results for his clients’. ‘Outstanding claimant solicitor’ Julie Marsh and the ‘bright, efficient, really hard-working’ Vanessa Wand come highly recommended by clients.
