Personal Profile

Hazel is a Partner within the Commercial Litigation team. She works on high value, complex litigation, involving claims for breach of contract, fraudulent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty and negligence. She has particular expertise in acting for Claimants in group litigation, but also acts for Defendants. Her work can be multi-jurisdictional and she therefore liaises with other teams across the Firm to co-ordinate global strategy.

Hazel works closely with litigation funders, and has an in-depth knowledge of the particular issues that arise in funded claims and how best to navigate these.

Hazel also has experience of representing families at an inquest and is a member of the cross-departmental Inquests and Inquiries team.
