完整简历

Emma is a Senior Associate running her own caseload of RTA, EL and PL claims involving traumatic brain injuries, spinal injuries, amputations and other orthopaedic injuries. These claims typically range in reserve value up to circa £2 million. She also works alongside the partners defending high value claims involving child and adult claimants who have suffered complex brain injuries requiring long running rehabilitation and ongoing support. These claims often involve issues of statutory funding, complex care and accommodation disputes. 

Emma continues to build upon her caseload of complex brain injury cases and is a member of the Clyde & Co’s Capacity & Court of Protection Subject Matter Group which produces blogs, claim handling guides and analysis of key cases. She has delivered training to clients on the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and the various issues faced by insurers when capacity is in dispute.

She is also a member of the Clyde & Co Care, Case Management and Rehabilitation Subject Matter Group and has recently been involved in devising, collating and analysing results of a survey of care experts looking at current rates for care, case management and agencies with a specific focus on care claims inflation. Emma also contributes to wider projects including being a member of an insurer’s cross panel collaboration on care and case management. 

She is also a Pro Bono & Social Impact Champion for the Bristol office.
