I am an Associate in the medical negligence team. I have worked in this area of law for several years and dealt with a variety of medical negligence claims including, stillbirth and neonatal deaths, fatal claims, inquests, delay in diagnosis, and orthopaedic claims.
I understand that approaching a lawyer regarding a medical negligence claim can be daunting, especially if you are unfamiliar with the legal process and procedure. However, I am committed to offering exceptional client service and achieving a resolution that fits the needs of you and your family. I always take a compassionate and empathetic approach and ensure that you feel supported and listened to from the outset. It is important to me that your voice is heard and that you have the opportunity to hold those responsible for your injuries or loss of a loved one to account, to prevent the same from happening to someone else. I ensure that I tailor my advice to your individual needs and concerns. It is important to me that you feel a part of the process and I will endeavour to provide the very best legal advice and keep you updated every step of the way.

Although this experience has been extremely emotional, I have always felt care and compassion from everyone I have dealt with. It has made this whole experience really easy. I feel that Chantae and the team have worked extremely hard and always had our best interests at heart.

I studied for my professional qualification whilst working full-time, qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive in June 2022 and became an Associate in April 2024.
Although I am based in Chelmsford, I grew up in Bury St Edmunds and I currently live in Colchester. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my fiancé and our German Shepherd, Lucy. I am also a novice runner and completed the London Marathon in October 2022, raising over £1,000 for charity.
