Legal Assistant - Personal Injury

"I started my legal career in 1990 and I have worked in personal injury since 2004. I joined Higgs in 2013.”

As a result of working in the personal injury sector for several years now, I have first-hand knowledge of how accidents affect the client. The client’s needs come first, and their recovery is paramount to putting them back in the position as far as possible to before their accident. Providing support and guidance to them and their families taking the stress out of the legal process.
