Kings Chambers

Elliot Kay’s practice is split between serious injury litigation and construction litigation, acting for both Claimants and Defendants in the County Court and the High Court.

Elliot’s serious injury practice involves increasingly complex and high value cases from the initial advisory stage right through to trial.  He has extensive experience in claims arising from road traffic accidents as well as claims involving employers’ liability, occupiers’ liability, and public liability.  Elliot is regularly instructed by insurers in claims where fraud is alleged and provides early strategic advice when required.

Elliot maintains a busy construction practice alongside his serious injury work.  He is regularly instructed by homeowners, contractors, sub-contractors, and employers across a range of construction disputes.
