Mike has nurtured a growing team of lawyers and achieved major successes for clients – by pioneering a holistic ‘family first’ approach to working with victims, meeting them face-to-face every single time right from the outset and closely auditing their position and presenting their case to defendants powerfully and assertively to get impressive results.

Mike regularly represents clients and their families who have experienced the effects of a wide variety of serious, life-changing injuries and experiences – including spinal cord injury, brain injury, amputation, polytrauma and psychiatric trauma.
Pro bono and charity work is key to the way Mike inspires his team and he has ensured his department develops and maintains close relationships with key charities who support people who have experienced a life-changing injury or family fatality.
These initiatives have led to tangible benefits for charities who do excellent work in supporting claimants physically and emotionally at what can be a challenging, life-changing experience.
Mike also works closely alongside experienced former police officers/family liaison officers and provides training materials for Police Forces and other emergency services agencies for them to better understand the civil procedures following a catastrophic injury sustained by a member of the public.
Following a long career in the catastrophic claims sector, Mike has long standing relationships with many of the leading insurance companies in the UK which means he is a trusted lawyer and renowned across the industry for his ability to access rehabilitation and financial support for his clients very quickly, in a friendly and collaborative style.
All of the cases that Mike and his team receive are recommendations from existing clients, healthcare professionals or other professionals that come into contact with catastrophically injured people or bereaved families.
