Fisher Waterhouse (http://personalinjury.ffw.com/personal_injury.aspx ) and Clinical
Negligence (http://personalinjury.ffw.com/personal_injury/team.aspx ) warrants its inclusion in the top tier. The group focuses on high-value complex cases and can often be found handling

clients across the UK and is developing a presence in the international marketplace, where it recently took on a case for a Hong Kong resident. Heading the department is the 'superlative'
Paul McNeil, who is endorsed by sources as being both 'incredibly tenacious' and 'formidable - he has a good tactical sense of cases and understands the strengths and weaknesses
involved.' McNeil is a long-established force in the field and an active member of several key panels and organisations, including Action against Medical Accidents (AvMA) and The Royal
Society of Medicine."
