Karen Clarke.

Karen has worked closely with case managers and worked on a case which was extremely complex, managing a young man with severe traumatic head brain injury and health and wellbeing concerns alongside the needs of significant family members where there was a strained family dynamic which required careful, coordinated management from both the case management and litigation perspectives in order to proceed in the clients’ best interests.

Karen’s caseload currently includes complex cross-border and international law claims, developing her palate and skills for navigating differing legal, medical, and financial systems. She is minded toward communication and fair but generous settlement, with a forthcoming Joint Settlement Meeting with an estimated value upwards of £7.5 million for a brain injury motorcyclist.

Karen also continues to work alongside Debbie Humphries on her high value serious injury cases, including brain injury.

Karen is secretary to the firm’s Charity Committee, with a focus on fundraising for local, staff-selected charities. She also recently ran a Dark Run to raise money for Hope House.

Karen is extremely popular with clients due to her detailed, compassionate and down-to-earth approach. Recent client feedback stated, “I would like to express my sincere thanks to Karen Clarke who took on this case. She has worked with dedication and efficiency throughout the last two years, giving advice and recommendations to enable this claim to be finalised very satisfactorily. Communication has been clear and precise throughout.”

She has been described by Counsel as a “fearsome litigator who charms her clients”.

She is well respected by the case managers who she works closely with which has led to client referrals. She has been recommended by defendant insurers to their family members when they have required assistance with a personal injury claim.
