Natalie Truman

I have been involved in some of the most high-profile group action cases, including:

• The trans-vaginal mesh litigation
• Sorin 3T heater/cooler cases
• Anti-Malarial (Lariam - Mefloquine) group action against the Ministry of Defence
• Various group actions against rogue surgeons Mr Irvine, Mr Paterson and Mr Arunkalaivanan
• Teva Levothyroxine
• Metal on Metal hip litigation

I also investigate singleton cases where there is an allegation of a defective product.

What inspired you to get into law?

It sounds like a cliché but the main reason I became a solicitor was to help people. This is why I decided to specialise in my field of expertise - personal injury. I also really enjoy reading, writing, and critical analysis/problem solving.

I am an organised person and I found studying law really strengthened this aspect of my personality.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your role?

Achieving a good settlement outcome for a client who has been seriously injured or affected by the Defendant, often after a lengthy and difficulty negotiation with the Defendant’s representatives.

What do you do away from the office?

I am a keen horse rider, owning two horses and regularly competing in top level eventing competitions. I am a keen badminton player and used to play for Nottingham County. I also enjoy travelling.

I was made well aware of all cost should my claim be successful and also how long things could possibly take. I couldn't have asked for a better service at a time that was both very distressing and extremely emotional. I highly recommend using Irwin Mitchell if you want to receive a good professional service." - 5* Trustpilot review
