Position

Andrew Hogarth KC has a strong reputation both in the field of personal injury and employment law with a particular interest in industrial disease claims. His reputation is at its strongest in cases requiring experience in both employment and personal injury law. He is recommended as a leading PI and employment silk in the current editions of the major legal directories. The 2021 edition of Legal 500 says of him, ‘He has an astounding ability to identify significant issues with ease and be there waiting with a smile when everyone else catches up to him.’

The 2021 edition of Chambers says of him, “He is technically able and can pick up any sort of work and deal with it. He works incredibly hard and is very good with clients.”

Previously Andrew has been described for giving “measured and reasonable advice” on personal injury, employment law and industrial disease matters” and as “a barrister capable of digesting a vast amount of information and distilling it into a few words.” Instructing solicitors say that, despite his “fantastic knowledge and enterprise,” Hogarth “doesn’t have an inflated personality.” and “knowledgeable, approachable and professional.”

From 1997 to 2010 he was a part-time Employment Tribunal Chairman. He is a CEDR-accredited mediator and mediates in employment law and personal injury cases. Andrew Hogarth KC was head of Chambers between 2005 and 2015.
