Steven Webb is a director of Steven J Webb Limited, a corporate partner in Thompson Smith and Puxon. He specialises in personal injury law and clinical negligence and leads the Dispute Resolution department, as well as being head of the Personal Injury team. He has expertise and extensive experience, over 25 years, in a broad range of personal injury litigation, including clinical negligence. With some experience of working for defendant insurers, the majority of the experience has been representing injured claimants.

Steven is a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) and a longstanding member of the Law Society Personal Injury Panel.

Steven represents victims of all types of accident, road traffic accidents, work accidents, public liability claims (slips and trips), and medical accidents.  He also has extensive experience of claims against the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority, on behalf of the victims of violent crime, and the Motor Insurers Bureau, on behalf of victims of untraced or uninsured drivers.

Married with three children, Steve, who was born in Chelmsford, Essex,  attended the Colchester Royal Grammar School before going on to gain his Law degree at Leeds University. He studied for his professional exams at Nottingham Trent University and joined TSP as an articled clerk in 1988, qualifying as a solicitor in 1990. He became a partner in the firm in 2001, and in 2006, when the structure of Thompson Smith and Puxon changed, he became a director of Steven J. Webb Ltd, a corporate partner in TSP.

In 2022/23 the Thompson Smith and Puxon Clinical Negligence team was once again recommended by the Legal 500. The Legal 500 said: Thompson Smith and Puxon‘s personal injury and clinical negligence team is led from Colchester by Steve Webb, an APIL senior litigator and a Law Society-accredited PI specialist who is praised for his ‘dedication to his client’s best interests combined with practical good sense’. He is supported by chartered legal executive Stacey Anderson, who has ‘the right mix of empathy, tactical guile and meticulousness in thought and preparation‘. Solicitor Sam Welham is also recommended; the team was also strengthened by the arrival of clinical negligence senior associate Hasina Choudhury in late 2021.
