David Boyle

David Boyle read Law at Churchill College, Cambridge and has 28 years' experience of personal injury work based at Deans Court Chambers in Manchester. In 2019, he was the first personal injury barrister appointed to the Bar Standards Board's Advisory Pool of Experts (APEX) and is the only civil law practitioner on that panel. In 2022, he was appointed as a Visiting Professor at the Dr B.R. Ambedkar National Law University, Sonepat, in India. He has a thriving practice across a broad spectrum of complex, high value, high profile and unusual Multi-Track claims, lectures at both undergraduate and postgraduate level and was Head of Mini-Pupillage at Deans Court for 6 years. Always approachable, he has a particular appreciation of the need for clients to understand their litigation, no matter what the complexities, and has a reputation for clarity and forensic rigour in both his written and oral advocacy. In 2015, the Legal 500 said that he "Provides tactically astute, detailed advice and is able to convey this simply." He has carried that through to his writing. More recently, Chambers & Partners 2023 noted: "He has an incredible ability to digest and absorb copious amounts of information and transmit them in a concise and simplified style" before describing him as "an exceptionally competent barrister". "He writes as he speaks: He surveys the territory with the advantage of a wealth of experience, richly leavened with a generous helping of personal anecdote, thereby combining authority with accessibility." - Turner J. (On Experts) "It is clearly the work of a barrister ... who is used to explaining in lucid terms, to professional and lay clients alike, the relevant underlying principles and the practical nuts and bolts of personal injury law. It is a book written in an attractive and conversational style and one which will be a splendid vade mecum for those seeking a true introduction to this field." - Stewart J. (An Introduction to Personal Injury Law) The Mini-Pupillage Workbook has now sold in over 20 countries world-wide. http://deanscourt.co.uk/our-barristers/david-boyle
