Position
Alison handles a wide practice covering the full spectrum of clinical negligence matters but with an emphasis on complex neurology cases, oncology, general practice, gynaecology and maternal injury, and paediatric claims. She is very focused on client care and ensuring that clients are looked after during the investigation process and then fully compensated.
Alison has advised on a number of maximum severity claims recovering damages settlements of £10 million+, but she also has considerable experience of managing mid-high value claims, including fatal claims, often on a conditional fee agreement basis.
Alison is an accredited solicitor with both the AvMA and Law Society specialist clinical negligence panels and receives enquiries through them. She is also a trained AvMA helpline volunteer and speaker. Alison is a mental health champion and culture and welfare partner for the personal injury and clinical negligence team and splits her time between the Basingstoke and Oxford offices.
