Overview
Jack Hickling is a civil law barrister and probationary tenant specialising in commercial, property, and personal injury matters. He is based in 3PB’s Birmingham office but works across all 3PB locations.
Jack completed a significantly reduced pupillage at the London offices of international law firm DWF LLP in June 2022 before practising as an employed Barrister. Jack’s practice included all manner of personal injury claims, predominantly acting for the Defendant. His experience includes counter-fraud, occupational health, highways, and credit hire matters, including cross-examining experts.
Prior to undertaking pupillage, Jack worked as a County Court Advocate and Advocacy Manager for a number of years, during which he gained experience of consumer credit, contractual, housing, and commercial disputes. He was then then responsible for the supervision of Advocates to ensure high a level of service was being provided to clients via training and auditing. It was this experience which led to the reduction in the length of his pupillage.
Jack also maintains a commercial and property practice, with a busy paper practice. Jack is regularly instructed by businesses in particular facing consumer rights, contractual, discrimination, misuse of private information, and data protection claims. His wider practice includes contractual, consumer credit, insolvency, and construction matters. He has extensive experience of possession work from his time as a County Court Advocate, including mortgage, landlord and tenant, and forfeiture.
Jack is regularly instructed to appear in both the County Court and High Court at all stages of proceedings and has a particularly busy trial practice of fast and multi-track claims. He is well versed in counter-fraud strategies including causation disputes, organised fraud, and has obtained a number of findings of fundamental dishonesty.
Jack is a hardworking and passionate barrister that brings a wealth of experience from many different areas of practice, and prides himself on his ability to provide pragmatic advice to clients.
Outside of work, Jack has a particular interest in both football and Formula 1 and is a keen supporter of Manchester United.
