Slater and Gordon fields a team which acts primarily for those who have suffered serious and catastrophic road traffic accidents. It is skilled at advising on cases involving traumatic brain injuries, amputations and other issues such as serious polytrauma claims. However, there have been changes to the team as principal lawyer Tracey Benson, who is based in London, and senior associates Gulderen Horton-Salih and Naheed Akhtar are now at the helm, since Steven Baylis’ departure.
