A distinct part of the Fieldfisher brand is also its award-winning personal injury and medical negligence team, renowned for its sensitive approach to handling difficult claims and achieving the best possible outcomes for its clients.

A consistent investment in developing innovative client solutions has resulted in the establishment of Condor, Fieldfisher Capital, DLC and Roscoe Reid, Fieldfisher’s highly successful and sought-after alternative legal services brands.
