Personal Injury and Medical Negligence

I have worked at Irwin Mitchell for over 22 years and have been a Partner for 13 years. I have worked in Manchester since 2010 having previously worked at the firms Newcastle and Sheffield offices. I have specialised in claims relating to negligent medical treatment since qualifying in April 2001.

For over 13 years I have been a member of both the Law Society Clinical Negligence Accreditation Scheme and an accredited Senior Litigator with the Association of Personal Injuries Lawyers (APIL).

During my career I have recovered millions of pounds in compensation for clients often dealing with multi million pound cases.

I have been involved in high profile cases such as the indexation cases. I have a particular interest in cases relating to child and adult brain injury, spinal injuries and delayed diagnosis of cancer cases.
