Handling cases across Wales and the South West from Thompsons’ Cardiff office, Lisa is a chartered legal executive working on the firm’s Personal Injury and Medical Negligence Teams.
Lisa has eight years experience as a legal professional and runs a high value clinical negligence caseload as well as assisting senior solicitors conduct more complex cases.
Lisa represents clients needing legal redress for delayed cancer diagnoses, GP negligence, orthopaedic injuries and brain injuries, including hypoxic brain injuries at birth and cerebral palsies. A number of Lisa’s clients have also suffered complications after undergoing mesh implants.
A skilled and determined investigator, Lisa’s main goal is to secure the highest possible compensation for those who have been injured through negligence.
Caring and friendly, Lisa is always conscious that those who have suffered clinical negligence are left to pick up the pieces and often face the prospect of needing further therapies and treatment not normally accessible under the health service.
Seeing a client’s life change for the better because of a claim and achieving justice for those who have suffered injury through no fault of their own are Lisa’s favourite things about working at Thompsons.
Lisa is proud that Thompsons works exclusively for claimants and has an excellent record of fighting on behalf of trade union members.
When not working, Lisa is a volunteer and committee member of the Bridgend branch of the brain injury charity Headway. Lisa is also a keen baker and enjoys baking for charity events as well as travelling to new places and exploring new cultures.
