Switalskis adds two medical negligence directors

Switalskis has appointed Chris Gresswell-Green and Clare Thompson as directors in its medical negligence team.

Chris, based in Doncaster, brings 15 years’ experience in complex and catastrophic claims, while Clare, based in the North East, has over 25 years’ expertise, particularly in birth injury cases. 

Both are members of the Law Society’s Clinical Negligence Panel.

Chris said: “I’ve always been drawn to the challenge of navigating complex legal issues while advocating for clients. 

“At the same time, I’m fascinated by the field of medicine and how it impacts individuals and families. Combining my passion for law with that interest led me naturally to medical negligence, where I can use my skills to help those who have been harmed due to medical errors. 

“It’s an area where I feel I can make a genuine difference to people’s lives, often during the most difficult times they’ll ever face.

“Switalskis is a forward-thinking firm with traditional values and a strong reputation for high value brain injury claims, including birth injury. 

“I’m excited to contribute to its continued success and to work with such a talented team, while helping to ensure clients in East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire can access the support they need.” 

Clare added: “I’m proud to join a firm with such a strong national reputation for its medical negligence work. 

“I look forward to working alongside the team to ensure clients in the North East continue to receive the expert, compassionate support they deserve.”

Their appointments strengthen the firm’s services across East Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the North East in response to rising demand.

Suzanne Munroe, director and head of medical negligence at Switalskis, added: “We’re delighted to be able to bring two such talented and respected new directors into our team to enhance our service offering. 

“We already act for clients across East Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the North East, and these appointments allow us to further strengthen the support we offer in these areas and provide them with the personalised and attentive support they need post-injury.

“It’s an exciting time and it’s just the beginning. 

“Our reputation for our client care and our track record in developing careers means we are increasingly seen as an employer of choice, so we expect to see further new recruits joining us in these regions in due course.”
