Kings Chambers

Kings Chambers is praised as ‘a strong set of clinical negligence barristers’. Nicholas Braslavsky KC is sought after by claimants and defendants in high-value clinical negligence cases arising from GP negligence claims, delayed and missed diagnoses and cosmetic treatments, to name a few areas. Sarah Pritchard KC continues to act for defendants in complex spinal injury, birth damage and surgical negligence claims. Helen Mulholland KC is ‘always well-prepared’ and ‘a fighter in settlement meetings’. Among the junior end of chambers, Charlotte Law predominantly handles claimant work arising from a wide range of clinical negligence matters, including surgical and dental negligence claims and failure to obtain informed consent, and Jasmine Chan has experience in advising on causation and quantum cases.
