Shereef Hosny

I joined Duncan Gibbins Solicitors in June 2007 and work as a Solicitor specialising in employers, public and occupiers liability matters, I also deal with road traffic accident claims. I have had experience working in both Claimant and Defendant firms and this has given me a well rounded perspective on all aspects of personal injury matters.

I particularly enjoy the proactive approach employed at the firm and I strongly believe in offering solutions before problems arise. I also place an emphasis on communication with clients to achieve what is ultimately our common goal.

I completed my undergraduate law degree in Sheffield in 2000. On completion of my Legal Practice Course in Chester I spent time gaining practical experience within the legal sector. Thereafter I undertook a Masters degree in Business and Commercial Law at Liverpool John Moores University.

I have always enjoyed learning about other countries and cultures and over the years I have spent time working in France, Egypt and Brazil; being fluent in Arabic and French helped matters immeasurably.

Another passion that I have is music and I have amassed a huge record collection with a mix of music spanning different eras, transcending genres and circumnavigating the globe.
