About Jatinder Paul

Jatinder is a Senior Associate Solicitor specialising in international serious injury, with particular experience in group litigation and cross border disputes. 

Jatinder has developed a specialism in UK food poisoning outbreak group claims and currently pursues a number of group action claims as a result of illness outbreaks in hotels, restaurants and holiday resorts.
