APPROACH

Clients have said that Ewan is caring, hard-working and responsive. Clients can expect to receive legal advice in a manner that is easy to understand, as well as feeling in control of the process.

EXPERIENCE

Ewan has extensive experience in catastrophic injury cases and has led and settled his own cases whilst supporting on higher value brain injury claims. He mainly works on cases where the damages exceed £1m but also is adept in working on moderate brain injury claims where there are causation issues.

Ewan is experienced in cases where clients require a large multi-disciplinary rehabilitation team and enjoys helping to facilitate these through the claim and mapping a client’s journey to recovery.

Ewan is also experienced and adept in taking over cases from other firms, where clients have not received the level of service required, or where the direction of the claim is not where it should be. Ewan works tenaciously in getting to know the client quickly and building up the evidential narrative, in order for the client’s case to “catch-up”. One example includes where a client fell down a flight of stairs, due to an unlocked door in public premises. That client had been with a previous solicitor whereby no private rehabilitation team had been put together after many months and the client was in dire financial straits due to no interim payments. Ewan and the team worked quickly to rectify that before eventually going on to settle the client’s claim in excess of £1m.
