CMS

CMS’ defendant clinical negligence team is co-led by Yvonne Screene and Anna Walsh, who both act for medical defence organisations in complex and high-profile cases. Screene is noted for her work on sensitive and multi-party claims, including those involving obstetric and neurological issues. Walsh has experience in both the NHS and private healthcare sectors and is adept at managing claims involving multiple providers and liability issues. Kate Holbrook, based in Sheffield, is also recommended for her work defending GPs, dentists and consultants in multi-defendant cases, often involving detailed contribution claims and product liability elements.
