Christopher has a penetrating intellect and an ability to analyse and dissect the most complex issues quickly and comprehensively.”

Chambers UK 2022, FAMILY AND CHILDREN LAW

Christopher’s areas of work in catastrophic injury, including brain injury, his experience in complex public law children’s cases involving those with learning and other cognitive disabilities, and his work in financial remedies where he is sometimes instructed by the Official Solicitor, or in cases of catastrophic injury where one spouse has received significant awards of damages, all bring him into contact with the practical consequences of mental incapacity and the jurisdiction of the Court of Protection.
