Karen specialises in high value and complex personal injury and medical negligence claims on behalf of claimants arising from road traffic collisions, accidents at work and medical mistakes.
She builds strong connections with her clients and empathises with the difficult, stressful and sometimes overwhelming situations they face. She works hard to secure early funding and source the right treatment and expert evidence in order to negotiate the best outcome and settlement for her clients.
Karen qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive in 2010
Recent work
- Acting for a pedestrian who was injured in a road traffic collision when he crossed the road at night-time on a country road who suffered severe brain injury and orthopaedic injuries. Liability was robustly disputed but settlement on split liability basis was agreed shortly before a liability trial was due to commence, resulting in a significant six figure settlement.
- Acting for a father whose partner tragically died 2 days after giving birth to their daughter as a result of clinical negligence on behalf of the hospital Trust, supporting the family at inquest and securing an early admission of liability and early settlement of a six-figure sum.
- Acting for a client who suffered an injury to his thumb from a fall who developed a severe infection whilst in hospital which was not treated adequately by the hospital Trust, resulting in a joint fusion. Liability was denied but a six-figure settlement was achieved without the need for litigation.
