The team also has a dedicated international injury offering. Team lead Dan Herman works across the London and Leeds offices, and is ‘proving to be exceptional’ in the role. The team is building a ‘collaborative approach’ with insurers to better progress early rehabilitation services for clients; Charles Edwards has been central in developing protocols with various insurers to this effect. This focus on rehabilitation for clients is also evident in Ben Rogers‘ work with technology developed to assist injured people.
