Hari Kaur practices in the areas of Family Law and Personal Injury (including coroner’s courts).
Hari has significant experience in the family courts in cases involving sexual abuse and serious/fatal alleged non-accidental injury cases. She is regularly instructed in cases where cross examination is required of various medical experts including: paediatric neurosurgeons, neuro – radiologists, paediatricians and geneticists.
This extensive experience has proved invaluable in civil cases where Hari accepts instructions in claims arising from failure to remove cases and non-recent sexual abuse cases.
Furthermore, her considerable background in dealing with complex medico legal issues has resulted in instructions being received from NHS Trusts where the Trust seeks advice as to whether to intervene in family proceedings where allegations of negligence are being made against the NHS Trust. Such cases are usually in the context of allegations of non-accidental injury.
The complexity of Hari’s practice is such that she is led by Queen’s Counsel on numerous cases and also regularly appears, without Queens Counsel, in cases where one or more of the other parties have instructed Leaders.
