Christopher Edwards

Employment and personal injury.

Christopher’s main areas of practice are employment, personal injury (including travel law and industrial disease), clinical negligence, and costs. He also represents interested parties at inquests. About half his practice is court work: he is frequently instructed in high value and lengthy trials, as well as injunctions, interlocutory matters/case management hearings, and detailed assessments. He appears in the High Court, County Court, Employment Tribunal, EAT, and SCCO. When out of court he has a busy paperwork and advisor practice, and frequently represents his clients in settlement meetings/mediations. He has a mixed practice acting for individuals, public and private sector employers, unions, and insurers.

Brasenose College, Oxford (double first), where he was placed second in his year. While training for the Bar he held both the James Crouch Award and David Karmel Award in consecutive years, annual scholarships awarded by Gray’s Inn.
