Mark Hanson

Experience

• I qualified as a solicitor in 2010 and have over 10 years' experience dealing with personal injury cases and claims arising primarily from road traffic accidents but also accidents at work and public liability claims.
• In my role at BLM I deal with both pre and post issue catastrophic injury cases whilst also assisting another partner with a small number of their most high value and serious claims.
• I deal with claims involving significant and multiple orthopaedic injuries, spinal injuries, head/brain injuries, chronic pain cases and fatal claims.
• One claim I handled involved a claimant who suffered a head/brain injury, a fracture to the back of the head and multiple spinal fractures. The claimant's post-accident symptoms were complicated further by the fact the claimant had a complex pre-accident medical history. The claimant's schedule of loss totalled over £8million but a net settlement of £1,050,000 was reached at a JSM.
• I have often presented to clients and have given talks and seminars on various topics including chronic pain, Part 36 and negotiation, Civil Procedure Rules, negotiation strategy and The Ogden Tables.
