Personal Injury
Alison has successfully progressed catastrophic birth injury cases to trial in relation to liability and quantum, but endeavours to reach excellent terms of settlement, without progressing claims to trial, when possible.

Alison is a member of AvMA’s Specialist Clinical Negligence Panel and has senior litigator status with APIL (the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers).
Alison regularly writes articles for our website and presents at seminars.

She has been involved in a wide range of cases but has particular experience with clinical negligence cases involving obstetric and paediatric negligence, including cerebral palsy claims, and heads up the firm’s cerebral palsy team.
