Works in the clinical negligence and personal injury team, utilising NHS experience to seek justice for clients.
I assist on catastrophic, and high-value claims and conduct appropriate claims with supervision to ensure that clients receive a high quality and seamless service. I have assisted clients suffering traumatic brain injuries, missed fractures, sepsis deaths and I have successfully secured compensation for claimants with poorly managed cancer.
Coming from an NHS background and possessing four years’ experience in medical laboratories and two years’ experience in clinical negligence claims management at a large NHS Trust, before joining Anthony Collins Solicitors in 2014. I bring an understanding of NHS hospital’s internal procedures and practical medical knowledge which allows me to target investigations and break through the opaque administrative systems in the NHS. In 2018 I qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive and have broad experience supporting clients, ranging from modest to multi-million-pound claims.
I want to take this opportunity to say thank you for all your hard work with this case. Initially, I was worried that pursuing the claim would be stressful for me and I am very grateful that with your support and efficiency it has been successful without much input on my part.
From start to finish the whole experience with Christopher Frankling was nothing but fantastic. He was extremely informative and I believe a credit to your company!
