Other areas the team excels in include rectifications, professional negligence proceedings, TPR actions, and, more recently, cyber claims and master trust litigation. The practice is led by the Manchester-based Hayley Goldstone, an expert practitioner in multiparty professional negligence claims against solicitors and actuaries, funding disputes, and Pensions Ombudsman claims.
