Outer Temple Chambers

Referred to as ‘one of the heavyweights in the industry’, the clinical negligence practice group at Outer Temple Chambers is highlighted for its ’good range of talent and experience’. Operating predominately in highly complex disputes, the set’s cases encompass surgical errors, spinal injuries, cognitive injuries, along with various natal claims. Robert Dickason‘s recent activity is an example of this, such as Masih v The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust, an ongoing case pertaining to sudden cardiac death while under treatment for acute pancreatitis, which saw both breach of duty and causation under scrutiny. Senior barrister Nathan Tavares KC  was recently active in CB v Surrey & Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, an ongoing matter regarding the liability of mental health services and the extent of any responsibility to share information.
