Biography
I’m a Paralegal in the Medical Negligence team, based in Birmingham. I joined Irwin Mitchell in 2022.
My day-to-day work is very varied and I assist solicitors in the team with cases involving failures in cosmetic procedures and dentistry, as well as surgical errors and brain injuries.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your role?
The most rewarding part of my role is speaking to potential clients who want to make a claim. Often, clients feel as though they haven’t been listened to so being their first port of call is very rewarding.
