I am a Partner at Tees, supporting the top-tier Legal 500 Medical Negligence Team, which I joined in 2018.
We support vulnerable clients and their families through often difficult challenges, delivering fantastic life-changing help that makes a real difference. Being part of such a leading team and having the opportunity to learn from them and help the team grow is a privilege.
I have recently settled many multi-million pound cases and am also working on many ongoing complex/high-value cases surrounding neonatal care/deaths, brain injuries and avoidable amputations, as well as numerous inquests.
I have over a decade of experience working exclusively on medical negligence claims. My areas of particular expertise include:
In every case I work on, I strive to ensure that lessons are learned and patient safety is improved.
A very strong team of dedicated clinical negligence specialists. Large enough to have strength and breadth but not too large that personal care is lost.
I studied law at the UEA before specialising in medical negligence claims and finished in 2002. I support many phenomenal charities to make a difference in our communities so that we can provide wider guidance and collaboration.
My professional accreditations include:
I have worked on several high-profile cases, helping clients secure life-changing compensation and understand what happened during their medical care.
Outside of my family, I enjoy outdoor pursuits and also keep bees.
