Guildhall Chambers is a ‘very competent set with an excellent collection of counsel experienced in the field of personal injury litigation’. Oliver Moore is ’excellent in assisting with case management and case strategy’ and successfully acted for a prison officer who had to take early retirement on ill health grounds, which happened due to the passive exposure to synthetic cannabinoids smoked by an inmate.

James Bentley is ’a safe pair of hands’ who is known for ‘providing advice on the most complex and difficult claims’, and his workload involves high-value brain injury, fatal accidents and chronic pain claims.
