More about Ellie
We asked Ellie: Q: What can clients expect from you? A: Clients can expect a friendly and empathetic approach with information provided in a clear and understandable way to ensure they as comfortable as possible when going through this difficult process. Q: What do you love about your job? A: All of the cases we work on are really interesting and it’s fascinating to see the interaction between the medical and legal aspects of each case. It’s also a very rewarding role as we get to see clients get the justice they deserve after going through traumatic experiences and being let down by the medical professionals they trusted.
