We are delighted to announce that Elizabeth Rose has been shortlisted for Lawyer of the Year in the Scottish Legal Awards 2023
Describing her journey and drive Elizabeth said:
‘I want to be a force for good and ultimately improve patient outcomes and provide redress to those who have experienced negligent medical harm. Medical trauma is very difficult to deal with and pursuing the NHS is stigmatised. In 2018, my three- year-old was diagnosed with brain damage as a result of what we believed to be negligent medical care and treatment. Our world as a family was tipped upside down and I felt abandoned by a system that I felt should have supported us. I know what it is like to speak out and not be listened to, ignored and then have to pursue legal action. I want to remove this stigma for the clients and explain why our services are necessary. We provide answers and accountability for patients that have been so badly let down at some of their most vulnerable moments in their lives.’
Thank you to the Scottish Legal Awards and we look forward to attending the awards dinner and ceremony in September.
