Claire Jaunbocus

Get to know Claire

Following studying Law and Criminology at the University of Sheffield, I began working in the abuse department at Slater and Gordon over four years ago and have gained a great deal of knowledge and expertise due to the diversity of cases I have both assisted on and lead myself.

Career highlights

I have been privileged to assist on cases representing survivors who have suffered abuse in a variety of circumstances including civil claims against institutions (such as schools, the Catholic/Anglican Church, sporting organisations and local authorities), breaches of the Human Rights Act and assisted on inquest cases.

I have also successfully represented survivors of abuse in applications to the CICA including physical/sexual abuse, families affected by the Manchester Arena terror attack and families affected by homicide.

The extra mile

I obtained a distinction in Civil Litigation and am a registered Graduate of CILEX.

I am also a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL), Association of Child Abuse Lawyers (ACAL), Manchester Trainee Solicitors Group (MTSG) , Greater Manchester CILEX Branch and a member of the reference panel for the Centre for Women's Justice.

I have spoken at conferences for organisations such as EMBRACE who support victims and their families affected by serious crimes.
