The group at DWF is noted for its ‘vast experience in catastrophic PI work’. In Manchester, catastrophic injury specialist Ian Slater and David Wynn, who handles legacy matters relating to the construction, chemical, and mining sectors, are names to note. In Liverpool, large loss expert Rob McKee and January 2025-promoted partner Hannah Fitzgerald, who has experience in handling multi-party litigation and matters involving an array of serious injuries, are key practitioners. Also in Liverpool, Dave Young is lauded by clients as ’one of the very best defence PI solicitors around’. The practice is overseen by Jewels Chamberlain, who has expertise in RTAs, particularly in whiplash cases, PI fraud specialist Stuart Poole, and major injury expert Rob McKee in Liverpool, alongside Tom Higson in Manchester. Ruth Graham joined the Manchester team in August 2024.
