Chambers of Oliver Segal KC

Old Square Chambers is known as ‘one of the best personal injury sets at the Bar’. Charles Woodhouse KC has particular experience acting in defendant claims involving chronic pain, functional illness, and mild traumatic brain injury as well as for members of the armed services. Kara Loraine was recently instructed by the claimant in the widely publicised High Court case of Mathieu v Aviva, in which a successful artist suffering from a brain injury following a collision with a moped claimed for significant compensation for loss of past and future earnings - the case considered whether provisional damages can and should be awarded for the risk of developing dementia due to severe traumatic brain injury.
