Ann-Marie's case experience 

  • Acted for five members of the same family, including two children, who had been either injured or bereaved in a road traffic accident which killed two family members and caused serious injuries - including severe scarring and psychological injuries to the survivors.
  • Secured a six-figure sum for a paramedic who suffered a significant shoulder injury in an accident at work and was unable to continue working.
  • Settled a case for six figures for an NHS employee who slipped at work and suffered a serious injury to her back.
  • After the employer’s insurer denied liability, Ann-Marie secured just under £60,000 for an operation assistant. He suffered a range of symptoms after his arm struck tray full of syringes which had not been put back properly on top of a trolley by the anaesthetist. 

 

Testimonials

The excellent damages you managed to attain for me certainly helps. I can never thank you enough for everything you have done on my behalf, especially as you have been so successful.

Ann-Marie's former client

Ann-Marie Christie and her team were efficient and professional, treating my sister and I with the utmost respect at a very difficult time. She pointed out clearly the pros and cons of our particular case. Sadly, in the end, she could not recommend going beyond a certain point. She clearly explained the reasons why and advised us about other approaches we might consider. She helped us along the way as much as possible. We were very grateful for her impeccable conduct and advice. The rest is now up to us. We would both like you to pass our thanks to her and her assistant/s.
