Penningtons Manches Cooper LLP

Penningtons Manches Cooper LLP has a highly specialised personal injury practice focused on maximum severity claims, including traumatic brain and spinal cord injury, amputation, fatal accident, orthopaedic injury, and severe psychiatric injury matters. Warren Collins and Tristan Hallam jointly lead the team; Collins is widely recognised for catastrophic injury and wrongful death claims, particularly with a US and UK cross-border dimension, while Hallam brings longstanding expertise in Police Federation work, including Winsor risk issues, police injury pension matters, and complex psychiatric injury claims. The team is noted for its partner-led model, early rehabilitation focus, and frequent instruction on technically difficult claims referred by other firms, clinicians, and police organisations. Louise Taylor is a key member of the team for complex multi-track, psychiatric injury, and group litigation work, with Sophie Bullimore and Ben Porter adding further depth in Police Federation, abuse, psychiatric injury, and catastrophic injury matters.
