I am a clinical negligence lawyer with expertise in birth injury cases and other catastrophic injury cases; vascular and cardiac cases, including cases arising out of aortioc dissection and AAA; and cases arising out of infection including necrotising fasciitis, pneumonia and TB.
I have specialised in clinical negligence litigation on behalf of Claimants since 2007. I spent the first part of my career acting for Defendants in clinical negligence cases and this experience is useful when I am advising clients on strategies and tactics.
