We’re proud to announce we have retained our Tier 2 ranking in The Legal 500 for 2025, a testament to our commitment to providing exceptional support for individuals affected by life-changing injuries.
Our Cheadle office, led by Vicky Whitney and Emily Kalwak has earned recognition for our innovative approach to catastrophic injury claims, particularly those arising from road traffic collision, accidents at work and public liability cases.
A highlight for the team this year is Emma Jones, who has been recognised as a Next Generation Partner. Since her promotion in April 2023, Emma has become a rising star for her outstanding work in traumatic brain injury cases, particularly focusing on ensuring the best rehabilitation outcomes for her clients. Her recognition is a testament to her dedication and expertise.
Both Vicky and Emily have been highlighted for their expertise in supporting people after traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries, and for securing early payments from defendant insurers, showing our proactive stance in delivering vital financial input and funding for specialist treatment and rehabilitation at the earliest possible opportunity.
