Warren Maxwell

Partner in the Personal Injury department. Warren represents claimants in high-value and complex personal injury claims arising from road traffic collisions, accidents at work, equine and sporting accidents. Before training as a solicitor, Warren served for five years in the Coldstream Guards and has a particular understanding in relation to claims brought by past and present HM Forces personnel. Warren has significant experience in acting for child and adult claimants who have suffered injuries of the utmost severity, particularly brain, spinal cord, burns, amputations and complex orthopaedic injuries. Warren recently recovered £14M for a 17 year-old female who sustained a brain injury after she was run down when aged 5. He acted for the claimant in Housley v Christiansen LTLPI 6/1/2010 where damages to pay for a light aircraft and associated costs, (including the cost of renting accommodation with attached airstrip), were recovered by a flying instructor who was unable to continue teaching as a result of his injuries. He was also the claimant’s solicitor in Cheung v Zhu (t/a Yang Sing Fish and Chip) [2011] EWHC 2913 (QB): an employer’s liability action where the claimant sustained a spinal cord injury, which is now often cited in ‘slip/trip’ cases. · Stewarts Law LLP
