I am proud to be an integral part of a dedicated team making a difference to the lives of others by providing support and expertise at their time of need.
Throughout the claim I was treated with utmost respect, courtesy and professionalism. Everything was explained to me in the minutest detail so that I was able to understand and follow any developments.

Get to know Sarah
I’ve been working in the legal sector for over 20 years and qualified as a solicitor 2002. In 2019 I joined Slater and Gordon Lawyers’ industrial disease team, where I'm currently a team leader.
I have a vast amount of experience of dealing with industrial disease claims in particularly asbestos related disease claims.
I specialise in mesothelioma, lung cancer, asbestosis and pleural thickening claims and tirelessly go above and beyond in seeking financial redress for those who have suffered as a result of this indiscriminate natural fibre.
Whilst financial redress is important, I believe empathy and sensitivity in dealing with clients and their loved ones is crucial. I've committed myself to assist all of those affected and their families.
Where possible, I endeavour to ensure funding for specialist treatments not available through the NHS. I work with several asbestos support groups and charities including Asbestos Support In London & The South East, South West Asbestos Support & Awareness Group, Asbestos Awareness & Support Cymru and Mesothelioma UK.
I’m also a compassionate ally, a fierce opponent and I am focused on obtaining the best possible outcomes for my clients.
I thrive as a team leader and as a mentor, providing advice and support to other members of the team but also dedicate myself to the charities I am involved with.
The extra mile
I’m a member of the Association for Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL).
