Biography
I act for a wide range of clients who have suffered an injury through no fault of their own.
I specialise in medical negligence claims and have dealt with a wide variety of cases including amputations, birth injuries, complex spinal injuries, cases concerning surgical errors, misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis claims.
I also have experience in a variety of personal injury claims including accidents at work and road traffic accident claims.
I am recognised as an “Associate to watch” for Clinical Negligence in Chambers and Partners and have previously been named a “key lawyer” in the Legal 500 for Clinical Negligence.
Outside of the office, I offer support to students as a supervising solicitor at the Free Legal Advice Clinic.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your role?
I enjoy getting to know and support my clients through the claims process. I recognise that most of my clients have not been through the claims process before and aim to convey complex legal and medical information in a way that they can understand. It is rewarding to help my clients through this process, in order to seek answers and obtain a positive outcome for them in their claim.
What do you do away from the office?
Outside of the office, I enjoy going to gym classes including Body Combat and Body Pump. I also enjoy exploring and travelling, whether in and around Scotland, indulging in local bakeries or scratching off another country on my scratch map.
