Julie was instructed jointly at an early stage in the litigation, while the claimant remained in the NHS ABI Rehabilitation Unit, and on discharge, she was able to secure a continuity of his Rehabilitation in a private facility on a fully CCG-funded basis, which was a real pinch point in the claim.  As a result of the high standard of neuro rehab. he received in the private facility the claimant made great strides in his recovery in context and his upward trajectory continued when in the community due in major part to the MDT Julie assembled and the appropriate direction and control she had over the whole process.  Julie’s open and well-reasoned approach gained significant trust from and between the parties which led to seamless funding and swift delivery of SMART Goals.  Both solicitors, leading counsel, and in particular the parties’ neurorehabilitation experts were keen to reserve specific praise for Julie’s expert handling of the MDT and the whole rehabilitation process, which was well-balanced, client-centric highly focussed, and always considered to be proportionate.”
