Outer Temple Chambers

Featuring ‘a broad range of very capable advocates’, the personal injury offering at Outer Temple Chambers holds broad expertise in catastrophic injury matters, including those pertaining to maximum severity injuries, psychiatric claims stemming from serious accidents and sexual abuse, along with injuries involving sports or equine activities. The sophistication of the set’s cases is evident in Sarah Crowther KC’s role in Tyres v Aegis Defence Services (BVI) Limited and others, a wrongful fatality claim where the liability of the employer for the death of a private military contractor in Iraq and duty to their widow was in contention. Additionally, Ian Denham routinely presents cases before higher circuits, such as Fleming v Zurich Insurance plc, a case that reached the Court of Appeal and saw a dispute that arose from a spinal whiplash injury suffered by the claimant.
