Noted for its ‘highly individual, bespoke approach’, Fieldfisher’s personal injury practice regularly handles sophisticated, large-scale and novel cases, as well as cross-border disputes for international clients and industrial disease victims. Both overseeing catastrophic cognitive, orthopaedic and spinal cord injuries, amputations and fatal claims, Peter Williams and Jill Greenfield co-head the department. Greenfield is noted for her expertise in sexual assault, terrorist and contagious disease claims, while Williams’ experience covers industrial disease, workplace and traffic injuries litigation. Andrew Morgan is a key figure in the team for mesothelioma and asbestos claims, as well as for other diseases resulting in injuries or fatalities in workplace environments. Keith Barrett is highlighted for his ‘ability to provide clear and precise advice’ concerning maritime and aviation injuries, as well as traffic and cycling injuries, an area that Jennifer Buchanan also specialises in. Dushal Mehta is broadly experienced in physical and psychiatric injuries, including those incurred in workplaces and terrorist attacks. Other key figures include Nick Godwin, who holds over 20 years of experience in spinal and brain injuries, secondary victim claims and fatal claims.
