Huw is a partner in our Leeds office. Huw deals with a broad spectrum of claims, including motor, employers’ and public liability claims on the instruction of insurers.

Huw is nationally recognised for his expertise in dealing with fatal accident and catastrophic injury claims. The sensitive and complex cases he handles often involve tetraplegia, paraplegia, other spinal injury, loss of limbs or senses, serious head injury and psychiatric injury.

Additionally, Huw is often the first choice for insurers seeking legal representation for high profile health and safety prosecutions and police investigations arising from major incidents, many of which have attracted national press interest.
