Tom is a professional and financial risks specialist, advising clients on professional negligence claims and coverage disputes. His client base includes solicitors, barristers, and other professionals and their professional indemnity insurers. Tom also has notable international experience, having worked on complex and high-value coverage disputes in Asia, providing coverage advice to insurers and reinsurers on financial lines, marine, and first party property claims.

"I ensure that I fully understand my client's goals as we enter in to proceedings to build an approach tailored to their needs and ambitions – my client's voice is heard from start to finish."

"I bring a creative approach and attention to detail in investigating and examining disputes. I ensure every avenue is explored, and forensically examine the issues in dispute with a fine-tooth comb to find effective solutions to resolve claims with the best outcome possible for my client.

Clients appreciate my friendly and approachable nature, and I always look to build strong, lasting relationships with my clients so they feel confident working with me and safe in the knowledge that I will fight their corner. Communication is also key - I'm only ever a phone call away and always happy to discuss progress or questions with my client as their case develops.

I ensure that I fully understand my client's goals as we enter in to proceedings to build an approach tailored to their needs and ambitions – my client's voice is heard from start to finish."

Tom's recent work highlights:

Gallagher v Hallows Associates [2020] EW Misc 7 (CC) – successfully defending and striking out a significant solicitors professional negligence claim on the basis of invalid service.
