Why choose our Professional Negligence lawyers?

We regularly represent clients in claims against accountants, solicitors, barristers, surveyors, tax advisors, financial advisors, architects and engineers, among others.

What sets our professional negligence practice apart is that claims are conducted by sector experts, who specialise in the sector or practice area that the claim is in - for example, legal practice, real estate or tax. 

Based across three regional offices in the UK, we collectively have one of the largest teams of professional negligence solicitors in the UK. Our lawyers have vast expertise and experience in all matters relating to professional negligence and offer a comprehensive dispute resolution service to handle the most complex claims.

We quickly and carefully assess the circumstances of every case and establish all of the facts and the consequences of the negligent conduct.  We work exclusively with the leading barristers' chambers in the UK should it be necessary to initiate High Court legal proceedings to bring a resolution to the claim.  We settle the majority of our cases through negotiation or mediation, without going to trial. 

We offer different funding options to clients who wish to pursue claims according to their financial position and objectives, giving them peace of mind and clarity as to costs.
