Matthew Pascall, New Senior Underwriting Manager

Barrister Matthew Pascall is the latest addition to the expanding commercial team at Temple Legal Protection [1], joining as Senior Underwriting Manager from November 2017.

Matthew was called to the Bar in 1984 and joined Guildford Chambers two years later. Spending more than 30 years in practice there, he has comprehensive knowledge and experience of the commercial legal sector and he is listed in the current Legal 500 as a Tier 1 barrister.

Matthew has been providing ongoing consultancy services to Temple Legal Protection for some time and therefore has prior insight into the company and has already established productive relationships with our clients. His knowledge of the commercial legal sector and litigation practice will be invaluable to the business, providing specialist experience to lead the commercial litigation insurance team.

Chris Wait – Managing Director says:

“Matthew brings with him a wealth of experience ‘at the coal face’ of commercial law and is a key appointment for the expanding commercial team. Temple Legal Protection is recognised as a UK market leader for litigation insurance and funding. Our original blueprint when we started the business over 20 years ago was to recruit the best staff to provide the best proposition to the market combined with the highest level of service. A philosophy we have used to grow the business successfully year on year.”

Matthew comments:

“Having worked in the legal services industry for 30+ years I was aware of the outstanding reputation that Temple Legal Protection has in the market place. I have enjoyed the previous work I have completed with Temple and I’m eager to bring my skills and experience into this new and challenging full time role.”
