London Area, United Kingdom
I am an experienced healthcare litigator who advises clients at every stage of the litigation process from pre-action to first instance trial and appeal at all levels of the appellate courts. I split my time between Bevan Brittan's London and Leeds offices. I specialise in defending complex, high value and novel and repercussive claims brought against healthcare providers. I acted in a ground-breaking public policy case concerning recoverability of damages for international commercial surrogacy arrangements, and am regularly instructed on multi-million pound negligence actions involving obstetric, neurosurgical, ICU and cardiac care. I am interested in all areas of healthcare law and ethics but have a particular focus on emerging clinical risk and patient safety issues arising in the fields of digital health, AI and med tech. I am Bevan Brittan’s Co-Lead for Digital Health and advise start-ups, SMEs and established corporate providers on liability exposure, indemnity arrangements and end-user risk and safety. I am regularly asked to provide training to clinicians, healthcare management, insurers and in-house legal and clinical governance teams.
