Personal Injury

Peter’s practice includes a wide variety of personal injury work, and he is regularly instructed both in court and in preparation of advice and pleadings. Instructions include both Claimant and Defendant work, sometimes on CFAs, across the full range of occupiers’ liability, public liability, employers’ liability and road traffic.

RTA

Peter has gained much experience of RTA trials, appearing in court in small claims and fast track matters several times a week. His experience includes liability matters, personal injury, quantum disputes, credit hire and dishonesty allegations, as well as procedural matters and cost hearings. Adept at analysis, he has had particular success with ‘black box’ data and in LVI challenges. As a ‘career-changer’ at the Bar, Peter brings a maturity to proceedings which is valued by lay-clients at trial and in pre-trial conference. Peter is also regularly instructed in paperwork matters, including all pleadings as well as advice on liability and quantum.

Employers’ and Public Liability

Peter appears in court on small claims and fast-track matters. He is regularly instructed to provide advice, pleadings and attend trial in EL/PL claims, including classic slip/trips in the workplace and on the highway; regulatory matters such as provision of equipment, safe working methods and risk assessments, and application of the “six-pack” regulations generally. He has represented local authorities and housing bodies, and also deals with claims in an education setting.
