Richard grew up, studied and commenced his legal career in South Wales. He quickly became a civil litigation partner of a high street firm in 2001, predominantly practising Personal Injury.

In 2007, he left Wales to take up a more specialist role in Stroud, Gloucestershire conducting Multi-Track litigation for clients with life-limiting / life-threatening conditions caused by brain and spinal injuries and asbestos related industrial diseases, to include lung cancer and mesothelioma. Richard was appointed as an accredited Senior Litigator by the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) in 2009. Additionally, he also established a successful employment law practice and was widely recognised for his expertise in health and safety legislation.

Richard was recruited by Harris Fowler in 2012 to further develop his many years of experience in acting for clients who have suffered catastrophic and life-changing injuries. He currently heads a high-value team as Associate Director with particular expertise in representing clients with multi-million-pound compensation claims who have suffered brain injuries, spinal injuries, and clinical negligence.

Richard is highly motivated on a daily basis to ensure that his clients receive the most comprehensive compensation packages for their injuries and financial losses in tandem with the best medical treatment and care provision available to address their accident-related symptoms and future needs.

Richard lives in Devon and like all members of our high-value team is more than happy to visit clients at home if more convenient for them.
