Insurance Litigation team confirmed as UK Leaders in its field by Legal 500 2018

The specialist insurance litigation team at law firm Sintons has again been confirmed as one of the UK leaders in its field by Legal 500 2018.

The team, which acts for a host of major UK insurers from its Newcastle base, again wins a top-tier ranking from Legal 500, in recognition of its outstanding capability, particularly in regard to defending high-value claims, and ability to consistently “provide a personal and professional service”.

It is singled out for its work in claims with extra-territorial elements, including accidents abroad and settlements for claimants based outside of the UK.

“Extremely knowledgeable” Jamie McCabe, head of insurance litigation, is once again recognised as a leading individual. Senior associate James Fisher is named as a future generation lawyer for a second consecutive year, in recognition of his outstanding work and potential.

Partners Frank Matthewson and Tim Smith are also recommended for their work.

Mark Quigley, managing partner at Sintons, said: “Our insurance litigation department is rightly regarded as being one of the key names nationally in this highly specialised area, with Jamie and his team having unrivalled capability to handle the most complex of claims.

“We are delighted with this latest endorsement from Legal 500, which recognises both our legal capability and outstanding levels of personal service.”
