Injury lawyer details for Clare Salmon

About Clare Salmon

Since joining Stewarts I have secured over £100 million pounds in damages for my catastrophic injury clients.  I am a Partner in the Personal Injury department and specialise in personal injury claims for claimants involving injuries to the brain, spinal cord, amputation and brachial plexus, as well as dealing with fatal accident claims.  These injuries have often arisen from road traffic collisions, accidents at work or in public spaces.  I am an accredited Fellow and Brain injury Specialist of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL).

I am regularly recommended by Chambers and The Legal 500.  In recent editions I have been described as an “insightful and hugely committed” lawyer who shows “real steel” when necessary” and have been recommended for my "tenacious approach and provision of ‘grounded, realistic advice”.

I was involved in previously settling what was believed to be the highest personal injury settlement at that time for young Chrissie Johnson, who suffered a serious brain injury in a road traffic collision at the age of 16. The award was likely to be worth more than £17.5 million over the young girl’s lifetime with her receiving part lump sum and annual payments. The case received nationwide press coverage.
