What is a Personal Injury?

At St Pauls Chambers, our personal injury and clinical negligence barristers advise claimants and defendants on all issues arising from personal injury and clinical negligence claims.

Members of chambers undertake work at Silk and Junior Counsel level in catastrophic injury claims, fatal accidents, industrial disease, road traffic accident claims, employers liability, public liability and clinical negligence claims.

Barristers can be instructed both on a conditional fee basis, or on a private client basis.

We pride ourselves on being approachable. Our Leeds Barristers are available for informal advice in the day-to-day management of any ongoing litigation on any issues which have arisen. We also operate a quick turnaround policy in respect of paperwork, and appreciate the importance of an efficient service, without compromising on high standards.
