An experienced firm in the field, Dolmans can 'handle complex health and safety and regulatory cases with expertise and professionalism'. Although it does handle work within the private sector, the team is best-known for its defence of local authorities in Wales and England, which are appreciative of the firm's deep knowledge of the law but also the nuances associated with work in the public sector. 'Very knowledgeable, dedicated and caring' team head Peter Bennett is key to the firm's success in the area, regularly taking the lead in catastrophic cases, helping clients 'feel protected and reassured' in often tragic circumstances. Claire Thomas is also 'superb', regularly providing assistance to Bennett on a number of the cases.
