The son of two doctors, Matt has medicine in the family. His expertise in clinical negligence spans both liability and quantum issues, and the difficult points of causation that can intersect them. He acts for both claimants and defendants, and finds doing so helps to give insight into how opponents may act.

Matt’s keenness for legal and factual complexity has also led him to develop a wide-ranging practice in indirect tax and rating, appearing in tribunals and courts all the way to the Supreme Court.

Outside the law and where the demands of his young family allow, Matt is usually to be found swimming, cycling or running. He has represented Great Britain in his age group at the ITU Triathlon World Championships, and is currently training for his second Ironman.
