Elizabeth-Anne Gumbel KC
‘Vast experience and gravitas in negotiations'
1 Crown Office Row fields ‘outstanding practitioners at all levels’, and advises on a range of cognitive, spinal and orthopaedic injuries stemming from workplace or traffic accidents, but sees significant specialism in sexual abuse claims, including those involving children in educational and faith organizations. This is an area that Elizabeth-Anne Gumbel KC is notably proficient in, evident in her recent involvement in the Supreme Court case YXA v Wolverhampton CC, which saw the failure of the council to remove children from abusive parents the primary object of contention. Jim Duffy also typically acts on behalf of child abuse survivors.
