Medical Negligence

Position

National Co-ordinator for Mesh Litigation

Career

Based at Thompsons Solicitors’ Bristol office, Madeleine is an associate and senior lawyer within the medical negligence solicitors team covering cases across the South West of England and Wales.
Madeleine is also the national co-ordinator for mesh litigation after leading a number of high-profile mesh cases in the Bristol area involving the surgeon Anthony Dixon resulted in Thompsons becoming a lead firm on the issue.
Beginning her career in 1998 as a paralegal and trainee solicitor working on clinical negligence and personal injury claims, Madeleine qualified as a solicitor in 2000 and has specialised solely in clinical negligence since 2009.
Madeleine handles a varied caseload of high-value clinical negligence cases, including claims for child birth injuries, brain injuries (including cerebral palsy), amputations, orthopaedic injuries, cauda equina syndrome and mesh cases.
In addition, Madeleine represents cancer and stroke victims who have suffered delayed diagnoses and misdiagnoses as well as families whose loved ones have passed away as a result of medical negligence.
Whether supervising junior executives and solicitors, carrying out her role of co-ordinator with national responsibility for mesh cases or working on her own caseload, Madeleine ensures tenacious investigation of all cases to ensure clients who have suffered a life-altering injury receive maximum compensation.
Madeleine also focuses on obtaining interim payments where applicable so that the client can obtain specialist rehabilitation or accommodation.

The most rewarding thing about being a Thompsons solicitor for Madeleine is working for a company that only represents those that have been injured and being able to support clients during what can be an extremely difficult and stressful time in their lives.
