Following its 2022 merger with BLM, Clyde & Co has further cemented a reputation for fielding a team of ‘national leaders in the field’ with a ’robust and determined litigation style’. Tony Cawley, Michelle Penn and Matthew Ford oversee the work, which falls into three focused categories: catastrophic injury and large loss, abuse and neglect, and disease. The catastrophic injury and large loss group includes ‘fantastic’ Claire Collins, and is experienced in claims involving a range of complex injuries including brain, spinal, amputations and fatalities. Paula Jefferson leads the abuse and neglect team nationally, and has expertise in cases of sexual, physical and emotional abuse claims both historical and contemporary – with particular experience advising on responses to disclosure, redress, and compensation. The disease team acts for high-profile clients on issues including work-related stress and bullying, carbon monoxide exposure, and asbestosis.
