Rhiannon Daniel

Practice Areas

Rhiannon is a Partner in the Spinal Injury team. She specialises in acting for people who have sustained a Spinal Cord Injury as a result of accidents or medical errors.

Rhiannon has extensive experience in spinal injuries. She has had a varied caseload of spinal injuries arising from road traffic accidents, accidents at work, public liability and complex clinical negligence claims involving spinal surgery and missed/delayed diagnosis of Cauda Equina Syndrome. Rhiannon has also acted for clients who lack capacity, children and clients who have been repatriated as a result of their injuries.

She has achieved substantial settlements for her clients with care packages that will support them in their daily lives now and in the future, providing peace of mind for them and their families. She has achieved spinal injury settlements of £5m in relation to an accident at work after a client fell through a ceiling void and £1.3m for a client who underwent an operation without proper consent.

Rhiannon is passionate about her work and committed to working closely with her clients, advising and supporting them throughout the litigation process. She fights hard to obtain early admissions of liability to secure her clients access to interim damages to help fund immediate needs. She has a proven track record of achieving high value settlements and prides herself on delivering excellent client satisfaction.

In addition to her expertise in cases involving negligence, Rhiannon is a Level 1 IPSEA-qualified special educational needs advisor. This allows her to work closely with the families and schools of her child clients, to ensure their complex needs can be met – giving her clients the best chance to thrive after their injury.

Rhiannon volunteers at Horatio’s Garden, Stanmore. She has organised various charity events and in particular works closely with the Spinal Injuries Association. Both charities services and support are invaluable to people who have sustained spinal injuries.

She is also on the MASCIP (Multidisciplinary Association of Spinal Cord Injury Professionals) committee. Rhiannon is keen to further SCI care and being on the committee allows her the opportunity to do this.

Rhiannon is a co-editor of the Spinal Section in Kemp & Kemp, Personal Injury Practice and Procedure.
