Position

Damian  is  a vastly experienced neuro trauma solicitor who has successfully concluded some of the most complex and high value brain and spinal cord injury claims in the UK in recent years.

Widely regarded as one of the most experienced catastrophic injury solicitors in the UK, I have an incredibly successful track record in achieving fantastic outcomes for the clients I represent. All my cases are brought in the High Court in London and almost all of the settlements I achieve result in seven and eight figure compensation payments for my clients.

There are few solicitors in the country who can match the experience I have acquired over the last 30 years dealing with complex personal injury claims.

His  clients come from across the UK and internationally, and I have significant experience of acting in cases where the injury was sustained abroad, or where liability is denied. He has particular experience and expertise of acting in cases where there is both a severe spinal cord and brain injury trauma. He has acted for many years as a professional deputy and understand the interface between the litigation claim process and the court of protection for our clients who lack capacity to conduct their own litigation or manage their financial affairs.

In 2017 he was shortlisted by the Law Society for UK solicitor of the year in recognition of the work he does in supporting people who have sustained catastrophic injuries and the charities who also support them. He is also an ambassador for CBIT, the national charity which supports children with acquired brain injury and he regularly participate in fundraising events.

He has  a dedicated team of lawyers who work alongside me, all of whom have vast experience of succeeding in complex and high-value brain injury and spinal cord injury claims. He visit clients at major trauma centres, hospitals or rehabilitation centres throughout the country.  He also see clients at their homes or, if they prefer at an appropriate venue close to their home. He is also able to see clients at our offices in London, Richmond, Guildford, Woking, Southampton and have access to meeting rooms in most major cities.
