Katy Wood

Medical Negligence

Senior Associate

“I come to work to make a difference to the lives of injured claimants and their families. That’s at the heart of what I do and why I do it. It is never easy for any individual to come forward and seek our help, but I do all I can to support these claimants and their families all the way and get them the answers they deserve.”

I’m a senior associate in the clinical negligence team. I have significant experience of advising clients on gynaecology and gynae oncology claims, ophthalmic claims, fatal claims, orthopaedic claims and spinal injury claims. I have also assisted on significant birth injury claims as part of my role giving me wider experience in these complex clinical negligence cases.

I have also been part of the Enable Law new enquiry team for many years speaking with and considering in detail potential new cases for our team.
