Work Department

Medical Negligence

Position

Dawn is a partner with a wide-ranging clinical negligence practice. She has extensive experience representing clients in claims across all fields of care, including birth injury, brain and spinal injury, medical, surgical and orthopaedic care, and claims involving GP care. She also represents clients in fatal claims, including those where representation at inquest is required.

Dawn is committed to achieving excellent results for her clients in even the most robustly contested cases. Past successes include achieving settlement with a complex provisional damages award for her client with a urological injury following orthopaedic surgery; acting in a number of cases where children and young people have tragically lost their lives from sepsis, recovering damages and ensuring changes are made to help prevent such incidents happening again; achieving damages of over £1m for a client who suffered disabling chronic fatigue syndrome following a negligently performed minor surgical procedure; and achieving excellent outcomes for a number of birth injury claims where the child has sustained catastrophic injury.

Dawn adopts a proactive approach to ensure where possible that these seriously injured children can benefit from early interim payments and have the opportunity to achieve their full potential.
