Personal Injury/Employer's Liability
Nicholas has extensive experience of personal injury disputes, and regularly appears in a diverse range of trials and hearings.
He has particular knowledge of employer’s liability claims, having advised and acted for both claimants and defendants at all stages of such cases up to and including trial. This has included advising on quantum, offers, tactics, and settlement, and appearing in trials on both the fast track and multi track.
In October 2024, Nicholas successfully represented as sole counsel a defendant NHS Trust in a 3-day multi-track trial (RO v Camden and Islington NHS Trust), in an employer’s liability/personal injury case pleaded at over £175,000, in which both liability and quantum were in dispute. There was a fundamental factual dispute at the heart of the case, requiring extensive cross-examination of the claimant. Judgment was delivered in November 2024 and the defendant successfully defeated the claim, with the judge accepting the defendant’s case on the facts, on breach of duty, and on causation.
