Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer LLP

Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer LLP handles a select range of high-stakes, reputationally sensitive personal injury matters, with a particular focus on fatal accidents, stress-at-work and bullying claims, historic group litigation, and legacy liability. The team operates as part of the firm’s wider disputes and contentious insurance offering and is distinct in its ability to manage both civil claims and associated criminal or regulatory proceedings. David Bennett leads the practice and is routinely instructed by major corporates in the finance, energy, and consumer sectors, often in matters involving complex causation, multiple jurisdictions, or significant media interest. The firm offers in-depth, partner-led representation on a lean caseload, including direct drafting of pleadings and counter-schedules.
