I specialise in defendant clinical negligence and medical malpractice. I act for NHS Trusts, Insurers and private providers of healthcare on a broad range of claims involving various disciplines including bariatric surgery, mental health and prison healthcare.
I trained at Bevan Brittan before qualifying with another firm in 2011. I returned to Bevan Brittan in 2013 and have specialised in defending clinical negligence and medical malpractice ever since. I have wide experience of advising clients at all stages of claims, both pre-action and in proceedings, and have fought many cases to Trial. I have spent time on secondment NHS Resolution and in the legal department of a large London NHS Foundation Trust.
I have particular expertise in consent issues surrounding fertility treatment and legal parenthood, and advised the clinics involved in many of the leading cases in this area.
