Should you find yourself involved in litigation, then whatever your role in the claim you will benefit from our joined up approach. Our handlers at all levels are trained to work collaboratively with parties to litigation, brokers, funders, insurers and TPAs. Our breadth of experience and effective inter-team working means that we can bring the right expertise to every claim.

We are familiar with case management systems in use by our clients and a number of our people have been seconded into clients’ offices to gain first-hand knowledge of their systems and processes.
