We are highly experienced in dealing with all types of personal injury litigation acting primarily on the instructions of insurance companies, Lloyds syndicates, intermediaries and self-insured in relation to employers liability, public liability, road traffic accidents and shipping. We have for many years been involved in all forms of dispute resolution and increasingly in alternative dispute resolution, which has grown steadily amongst the judiciary and the legal profession over the last decade. We have trained mediators in our litigation team experienced in achieving fair, speedy and proportionate resolution of disputes. The practice has close associations with a number of leading Motor Insurers and Lloyds Syndicates. Whilst acting principally for Insurers, we also handle motor litigation for private individuals and represent motorists in all Courts in Northern Ireland. We have particular expertise in the handling of catastrophic injury claims and also exaggerated/suspicious claims. As well as providing assistance and representation at inquests, our expert team of lawyers can advise on the prospects of defending motor prosecutions and on any potential civil claims arising therefrom. We are at the forefront of handling employers’ liability claims in Northern Ireland on behalf of both Insurers and their Policyholders. We have a dedicated team of lawyers specialising in advising in this area. Our approach is firmly interventionist whereby we undertake all necessary investigations not only to adequately advise the Insurer but also to safeguard the interests of the Policyholder. We have vast experience in dealing with the defence of all types of public liability claims. Whilst we predominantly defend the interest of companies, we also have extensive experience of advising and representing public utilities as well as the private occupier. The size of the practice enables us to provide a comprehensive claims investigation service extending to all of Northern Ireland.
