Biography
I joined our London office as a Medical Negligence Solicitor in 2022 having previously worked in criminal law.
At Irwin Mitchell, I represent clients who have suffered life-changing injuries as a result of negligent medical treatment. Even though every case is unique, I routinely deal with claims relating to stillbirths, maternal tears, missed or delayed diagnoses and fatalities. I also assist our Partners on complex birth injury claims and amputation cases.
Whilst I have a particular interest in women's health matters, above all, I am committed to my clients to bring about the best possible outcome for their claims.
What do you like about working at Irwin Mitchell?
The collaborative environment here is incredible, with close-knit teams that consult and support each other every step of the way. It's inspiring to be part of a Firm where everyone is dedicated to making a positive impact in our clients' lives, and where teamwork and shared values drive our success.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your role?
One of the most fulfilling aspects of my role is helping my clients to uncover what happened to them. Providing answers helps my clients to come to terms with their injuries. It's incredibly rewarding to secure admissions of liability and compensation as it enables my clients to access the therapies and rehabilitation they need to rebuild their lives.
What inspired you to get into law?
I have always been passionate about advocating for those who have been wronged and ensuring that justice is served. This drive, combined with my aptitude for arguing, makes law the perfect field for me! It also allows me to make a real difference to people's lives.
What do you do away from the office?
I love making the most of living by the sea, whether it's paddleboarding or taking the occasional dip! I also enjoy long country walks and discovering new places to dine out.
Testimonials
"I worked with Priya Saddington-Poole and she kept us updated throughout the claim and explained each of the steps to my dad. The costs were transparent and we were kept updated regularly on this aspect of the case. Sadly when my dad passed away before an outcome of the case, Priya was a true support to me and my family and it was bittersweet and very emotional when Priya called us with the outcome that she had negotiated for us after a lot of challenges! Thank you for Priya for all your help and support over the last few years!" - 5* Trustpilot review
