  • “David Gabell is an exceptional solicitor who has a keen, analytic legal mind but also a caring attitude for his clients. He will go the extra mile and takes a thorough, analytic view of cases which he then applies in a humane manner.”

Commenting on the listing, David Gabell said: “As a team, the Medical Negligence and Inquests department are delighted to have again been ranked in The Legal 500 this year, maintaining our Tier 2 status. It has taken a lot of hard work and dedication from every member of the team to achieve this and we are all very proud.

“Medical negligence and inquest law is incredibly complex and the work of a medical negligence lawyer is extremely specialist. The Legal 500 recognises this and only the top firms in the region, with the appropriate expertise and accreditation, are listed in the rankings and it’s fantastic to be recognised as such. It is testament to the dedication and passion of each member of the team, and we intend to carry that momentum into 2022 and beyond.”
