James gravitated from a general common law practice towards a practice in which he specialises almost exclusively in clinical negligence and costs. James’ previous work before medical disciplinary tribunals means that he has a wealth of knowledge as to the practical workings of the healthcare sector, together with significant advocacy experience. His previous broader practice is an asset when examining costs issues across the legal specialities.
