Eloise Power

Eloise is an experienced barrister specialising in medical law, with a particular interest in cases which raise complex points of law or are of wider social importance. Her practice includes higher court advocacy, group litigation and high-value claims such as amputations, spinal injuries and brain injuries. An earlier edition describes her advocacy style, noting that ‘she is passionate and razor sharp on her feet.’

Eloise’s group litigation practice encompasses multi-party clinical negligence actions arising from individual surgeons and hospitals, claims concerning sexual abuse committed by medical practitioners, and medical device work (trans-vaginal mesh, knee prostheses, intra-ocular implants), and She acted for the lead claimant in the JJML Pelvic Organ Prolapse Products Litigation.

Eloise also undertakes advisory work/ crisis management for firms facing difficulties arising from medico-legal work, and brings experience, discretion and an active problem-solving approach to this sensitive area of practice.

In May 2022, Cambridge University Press published Jha and Power: Lessons from Medicolegal Cases in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, which Eloise co-edited together with Swati Jha, a leading urogynaecologist. In September 2025, Eloise was nominated for a Chambers and Partners UK Bar Awards (Clinical Negligence Junior of the Year).
