Personal injury

Described in legal directories as an outstanding and impeccable lawyer, Sally is head of the personal injury department comprising five partners, 13 solicitors and 19 paralegals/support staff. She qualified in 1989, joined Leigh Day in 1991 and was made partner in 1992. She specialises in high value personal injury and fatal accident claims. She has specialism in head/brain and severe injury cases including spinal injury and amputation. Examples of the types of case settled by Sally are: £5.4m part lump sum and part annual payments for a brain injured cyclist. In this case interim payments were secured for intensive rehabilitation to purchase equipment, therapies and to buy and adapt a home for the claimant.     She secured a multi-million pound settlement for the widow and children of a cyclist killed on a charity bike ride. She has successfully obtained million pound plus settlements for clients who have suffered amputation, severe orthopaedic trauma and spinal cord injuries. She obtains interim payments to prevent her clients suffering financial hardship, also to fund rehabilitation, cover the cost of care and has secured funds to enable her clients to buy and adapt homes suited to their needs.  She is hugely committed to her clients and their families and passionate about the work she does.
