APPROACH

Kate takes a client focused, straightforward and common-sense approach to the cases she deals with. Survivors of abuse can often find the legal process confusing and overwhelming. Kate’s approach is, therefore, to make the process as clear and transparent as possible and build a relationship that allows clients to feel as though they can ask any questions at any stage of the process.

EXPERIENCE

Kate has worked across a number of child abuse claims, gaining valuable experience. Some of this work includes:

• Experience in dealing with redress scheme claims including cases under the Lambeth Redress Scheme and the Manchester City Scheme.
• Working on Group Actions and consolidated cases.
• Dealing with claims against various organisations and institutions including local authorities, charities, religious groups and limited companies.
• Pursued claims against individuals including enforcement work.
