Position
Aliyah Akram is acknowledged as a leading junior in personal injury, industrial disease and product liability litigation. She is renowned for her expertise and experience in group litigation in all of the core areas in which she practices. Many of her cases have an international aspect and give rise to both jurisdictional issues and conflicts of laws.
The value and complexity of Aliyah’s cases means that the vast majority of her work is in the High Court of Justice.
Aliyah is a robust and persuasive trial advocate. She prides herself on working closely as a team with instructing solicitors, not just in group litigation, but in every case in which she is involved. Her focus is always on maximising the client’s prospects of success. She is able to cut through the background noise and gets straight to the issues.
