Personal Injury
Emma Wilson
Principal Lawyer
I am a solicitor with over 20 years post-qualification experience dealing solely in claimant-only high value personal injury work.
Get to know Emma
I specialise in assisting individuals who have suffered life-changing injuries as a result of accidents across all areas of personal injury. I have particular expertise representing catastrophically injured individuals or bereaved families following road traffic collisions.
I adopt a holistic approach to representing my clients and ensure they and their families are fully supported throughout the claims process and beyond with early access to interim payments and rehabilitation as standard.
I also represent families in Inquests and Inquiries and I am proud to be leading the Slater and Gordon team representing a cohort of core participants in the Public Inquiry into the Grenfell Tower disaster. I also represent those individuals in claims for compensation flowing from claims in negligence and breaches of the Human Rights and Equality Acts.
I have been recognised in the Legal 500 2022 edition as a 'Key Lawyer' and states: "Emma Wilson is an experienced, tenacious litigator. A relatively new recruit to the firm, her legal prowess will bolster what is an already strong team."
Career highlights
I have represented claimants with acquired brain Injuries to achieve several millions in compensation in settlement of their claims.
The extra mile
I am a former committee member of Headway West Sussex I am a supporter of Headway East Sussex and the Spinal Injuries Association, for whom I have twice run the London marathon.
Emma has been patient, diligent, positive, caring, perceptive and totally professional throughout. Emma has worked tirelessly on my case, with weekends seemingly no bar to communications at any hour. Slater and Gordon have achieved the best possible settlement on my behalf. For that, I shall be eternally grateful. Thank you Emma. Client testimonial (for Emma Wilson)
