Stephen Killalea KC
‘Superb in every respect. Wonderful trial advocate, excellent with clients, dogged and determined, will fight tooth and nail for his clients.’
Devereux Chambers‘s personal injury offering is composed of ’very experienced, tactically astute PI barristers’, predominately handling high-value and sophisticated disputes involving maximum severity brain, spinal and orthopaedic injuries, as well as psychiatric injuries stemming from assault or sexual abuse. In addition, the set’s mandates also include public liability claims involving police or local authorities with a Human Rights Act component. Robert Weir KC is a port of call in the chambers for appellate level disputes, recently acting in the TUI UK Ltd v Griffiths Supreme Court case concerning the court's powers to reject expert reports which the parties claim are uncontroverted. Christopher Walker notably was instructed on behalf of the claimant in Raymond-Scott v UK Research & Innovation, a case that arose from the non-freezing cold injury incurred by the claimant while working at the Halley VI Research Station in Antarctica, and saw liability, causation and quantum all in dispute in an eight-day trial.
