Jackie Linehan is a Legal Director with more than 30 years' experience managing claims for compensation involving the NHS. Historically she managed many clinical negligence claims valued in excess of £10million on behalf of the NHS litigation authority and various Acute Trusts. This means Jackie is excellently placed to bring complex claims as she has a really good understanding of both sides of the litigation process having also acted as a defendant solicitor in the past. This year Jackie settled 2 brain injury cases for children with hidden disabilities for over £24 million each. She regularly receives instructions to take over child brain injury cases transferred from other less experienced solicitors. She is passionate about disability rights equality and authors a column for Cerebral Palsy Plus' quarterly publication inspiring members to dream big and pursue their goals. https://www.enablelaw.com/team/jackie-linehan/ · Foot Anstey
