The head of our medical negligence department has had her high standing reaffirmed by a national charity that helps victims and families affected by medical accidents or poor treatment.

The head of our medical negligence department has had her high standing reaffirmed by a national charity that helps victims and families affected by medical accidents or poor treatment. Madeline Seibert, a partner in our firm, has been accredited by Action against Medical Accidents (AvMA) for a further five-year period.This follows closely on the heels of another plaudit – Madeline’s elevation from Band 2 to Band 1 in the 2016 Chambers & Partners UK legal directory. She is also a member of the Law Society Clinical Negligence Accreditation Scheme and the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers.

“I was naturally thrilled to have my AvMA Panel membership renewed because it is by no means an automatic process,” Madeline explains. “AvMA operates a rigorous review system, looking at quality of client care and timely achievement of good outcomes.”

AvMA’s core objectives involve promoting patient safety and securing access to justice for those affected when things avoidably go wrong. The charity works closely with solicitors, and Panel members often attend AvMA Lawyers’ Support Group meetings.

“Over the past 15 years, Madeline has proved to be a top medical negligence lawyer,” says our firm’s managing partner Andrew Flannagan. “Clients with grounds to pursue medical negligence claims can rely on Madeline and her team to fight their corner.”

Madeline covers all areas of clinical negligence, particularly cases involving substandard nursing and midwifery care. She has acted on behalf of numerous children injured by medical errors resulting in birth injury claims including Cerebral Palsy and Erb’s Palsy.
