Sacha Hibbitt
Trainee solicitor
Trainee solicitor in the clinical negligence and personal injury team
My role
I am a final-seat trainee solicitor in the personal injury and clinical negligence team. I represent individuals who have suffered serious injury either through an accident or through medical negligence. I also act for individuals who have suffered abuse as a child or a vulnerable adult, which usually involves local authority care. I am very passionate that everyone is able to access recourse and justice for their injuries.
My experience
Following the completion of my law degree at the University of Birmingham in 2017, I spent several years working at a barrister’s chambers in their clerking team. I was previously a legal assistant in the personal injury and clinical negligence team at Anthony Collins for three years before beginning my training contract in August 2022.
My specialisms
- Personal injury
- Clinical negligence
- Abuse claims
