About Alice

Alice joined the Medical Negligence team in 2022, having completed her training contract, in 2019, and gaining experience as a solicitor in medical negligence law at a large national law firm.

Alice has gained experience in a large variety of case types, ranging from stillbirth, to delay in diagnosis of cancer cases, to surgical error cases, and has assisted on complex cases of maximum severity, such as birth injury and complex neurological claims.

Having the opportunity to work within the fascinating world of both law and medicine, has allowed me not only to support people through a difficult time, but also investigate and drill into the nuance of medical treatment. I find both, equally rewarding, and it is a pleasure to be able to shoulder the burden of a legal case for someone, in their time of need, and secure an outcome which can help them to rebuild their lives.

Cancer claims
If you or a loved one suffers from cancer, early diagnosis is vital if you’re to have the best chance of survival.
