Tees' personal injury team picks up major award

Tees was named the Personal Injury Firm of the Year in the Lawyer Monthly Legal Awards 2016.

Our clinical negligence and personal injury team is one of the most experienced and successful in East Anglia. Based in the Tees Law Cambridge office, the team is led by executive partner Janine Collier. "We are extremely proud to have been awarded the Personal Injury Firm of the Year 2016 and are grateful to those who nominated and voted for us. It is an honour and a privilege to be able to work alongside and make a difference to the lives of those who have been affected by personal injury and medical negligence, many of whom suffer devastating, life-changing injuries," says Janine.

Janine works with two other partners, two associate solicitors, seven paralegals and two team assistants. The team handles claims from across East Anglia but also acts for people throughout the UK. It deals with cases involving accidents, work-related illness, public liability and all other aspects of clinical negligence and personal injury. It has worked on numerous successful cases of varying complexity over the past 12 months, with the total damages awarded to clients topping £8m.

The firm’s expertise in the sector is formally recognised in our status as a regional top-tier Legal 500 medical negligence firm, and in corporate accreditation from the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers. 

The 2016 Lawyer Monthly Legal Awards recognises firms, lawyers, solicitors and barristers who have brought innovation to their practice, built on their expertise, and performed outstandingly over the year.
