HCC Solicitors has welcomed two highly experienced catastrophic injury lawyers, Ken Brough and Andrew Zajac, as partners in its London and Birmingham offices respectively. With nearly 50 years of combined experience, both bring deep expertise in serious injury litigation and a shared commitment to client care.
Ken Brough (pictured), who joined the London office on 19 June, was previously a partner at Hodge Jones and Allen. With 28 years in the field, he has worked closely with road safety charity BRAKE and will focus on high-value catastrophic injury cases and bereavement support. ‘I know a lot of the HCC team already so it's great to work with them again,’ he said.
Andrew Zajac, who joins the Birmingham office this week, was most recently a partner at Leigh Day and has specialised in serious injury since qualifying in 2006. ‘I’m really passionate about helping people to access the rehabilitation they need and get what they deserve,’ he said. Both lawyers will handle cases involving brain injury, amputation and complex orthopaedic trauma.
Patrick Maguire, managing partner in London, said: ‘They are technically brilliant lawyers and their down to earth personas make them a perfect fit for HCC.’ Director Martin James added: ‘Ken and Andy are among the leading serious injury lawyers in this country… their proactive and sensitive approaches with families after lives have been devastated is to be admired.’
