Principal Solicitor, Sydney

Medical Negligence

Kate WilliamsAccording to Ms Williams, " the application of law to medical negligence requires me to have both sensitivity and extensive knowledge of the legal process and its requirements. I realise this can be a distressing process and it is important that the client understands the essence of the process, the opportunity and the risks - then my clients can make informed decisions."

Medical negligence is a very complex area of law and I always am pleased when the client is completely satisfied with the advice they have received, especially at the settlement of the matter.” - Kate Williams
