Neil specialises in claims for overseas workplace accidents and against tour operators and hotels, as well as claims pertaining to the Montreal and Athens conventions.

Neil’s caseload involves claims for a range of injuries and conditions, including catastrophic orthopaedic injuries, brain and head injuries, cognitive impairment, fibromyalgia, vestibular injuries, PTSD, infectious diseases and illnesses and chronic pain.
