Will Cornwell

I am a Principal Lawyer at Slater & Gordon with over 25 years’ experience of representing claimants in the personal injury sector. Until 2013, I had dual expertise in clinical negligence and neurotrauma. I then headed a large employer’s liability team for a period, before moving over to focus on serious and fatal road traffic collisions. I have particular expertise in representing clients who have sustained traumatic brain injuries, from the relatively mild end of the spectrum to those with the most profound injuries. The lives of my clients and their families have often been turned upside down by the traumatic events in which they’ve been involved and a large part of my day-to-day work relates to facilitating the best possible recovery and rehabilitation for them. I also run a niche practice in representing bereaved families through inquests and civil proceedings following fatal road traffic collisions. · Slater and Gordon
