How we can help
Cripps already receive referrals from magic circle, silver circle and other international firms in other areas of our business.
As litigation is increasingly expensive, we are finding that these types of firms are finding it difficult to manage litigation profitably on behalf of their clients unless the disputes are valued at comfortably above £10m. This leaves firms with a dilemma, either they can refuse to take on the work below this value and risk that the client seeks advice from a competitor or alternatively they can run those cases at a loss.
Due to our regional location and lower cost base, professional negligence and group action team offer ‘city’ quality legal advice at more proportionate cost, meaning that we can run professional negligence and group action litigation valued at low seven figures quite comfortably. Our expertise in this area also means that we can offer risk sharing arrangements such as conditional fee agreements and damages based agreements for the right cases.
We are ranked in band one in the leading directories for the South East. We consistently achieve outstanding results against solicitors instructed by insurance companies. In the last year alone, we have recovered over £15m in damages for our clients. We are a team and a firm that can be trusted to deliver high quality advice at proportionate cost.
We would welcome the opportunity to meet your professional negligence team to discuss whether we could be of assistance.
