I am a solicitor specialising in medical negligence cases. My job involves securing financial compensation for clients who have suffered an injury (either physical or psychological) as a result of medical negligence. I have my own caseload and also assist more senior fee earners.
I have experience in a variety of claims including mismanagement of mothers and babies at birth, negligently performed surgical procedures, misdiagnosis and delays in treatment as well as failures in GP and community care.
I qualified as a solicitor in September 2014 after completing a two year training contract at Irwin Mitchell. Prior to starting my training contract I read Law at the University of Sheffield and completed a Post-Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice at the University of Law.
I decided I wanted to study Law whilst completing my A-levels. I was fascinated by the speed at which the law changes, and the far reaching effect those changes have on every individual in society.
Whilst studying Law I decided that I wanted to become a solicitor so that I could use the knowledge and understanding that I had gained to help other people.
Being able to get financial compensation for clients and seeing how it improves their situation is rewarding but I also think that clients benefit from having someone to talk to during what is almost always a difficult time in their lives.
It is rewarding and enjoyable to be part of a team of specialists in medical negligence and personal injury who have their clients' needs and goals at the centre of everything they do.
Outside of work I play league badminton and netball. I am interested in modern British history and also enjoy clay pigeon shooting.
"I want to say thank you to Helen for all her hard work and support. The main thing is that I’m currently cancer free and feeling positive about the future. You’ve also made this process extremely straight forward. I’m really happy with the level of service provided by Irwin Mitchell." - Tom, Rotherham
“Having suffered the heartbreak of four miscarriages – one ending in a distressing stillbirth, Stacey felt confident that she was coming under the care of Bassetlaw District General Hospital already armed with a high risk pregnancy care plan. "So to lose Tobias and then learn that following that there were missed opportunities to save him was a bitter blow from which she is still trying to recover. “What was particularly concerning was the disregard to Stacey’s concerns when she presented at the hospital with reduced movement from her baby. On these occasions Stacey’s case should have been escalated to an obstetrician – a decision which could have saved Tobias’ life. “Stacey hopes that by admitting liability and apologising for its mistakes, the Trust will have learned from this tragic case and avoid causing further suffering to other expectant parents.”
“Julie’s family have been left absolutely devastated by her death and understandably have a number of questions about the care she received at Royal Derby Hospital. “They hope that the inquest will provide some opportunity for them to learn more about the weeks leading up to Julie’s death, so that lessons can be learned from it.”
