Kitsons recruit high calibre lawyers to its Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence Team

Kate Stone and Corri Pedrick have joined Devon law firm Kitsons’ Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence Team.

Solicitor, Kate Stone has been specialising in Personal Injury work since she qualified in 1998, predominantly undertaking industrial disease claims and clinical negligence. Kate’s experience, sensitivity and determination has seen her become a real favourite with clients. A former team leader, Kate, is looking forward to her role with Kitsons providing expertise with client service which is second to none.

Corri Pedrick, is a Solicitor Advocate and Assistant Deputy Coroner for Torbay and South Devon. Corri formerly worked for regional heavyweight solicitors Bond Pearce where she assisted in setting up Bond Pearce’s clinical negligence department. Corri has a wide experience of personal injury and clinical negligence cases and having a Higher Rights of Audience Certificate which she obtained in 2004, means that her knowledge of the trial process is extensive.

Corri’s attention to detail and client service is described as “superb”.

James Cross, Managing Partner of Kitsons, said: “I am delighted to have two such experienced Lawyers join our team. A change in regulations means that solicitors’ practices who relied on claims management companies selling work are seeing a downturn in the number of clients, whilst at Kitsons, we have always prided ourselves on providing expertise and client service which has meant that we have gained clients through reputation. Whilst some other firms are having difficulties in the current market we are growing. Kate and Corri are two solicitors whom I would have no hesitation in recommending to clients and I am very proud that Kitsons once again has been able to recruit such high calibre lawyers.”

“Kitsons already have Dawn Healy as a Personal Injury and Clinical negligence specialist in Plymouth and Robert Scott and Katy Sandel undertaking Personal injury work in Exeter. All five are Solicitors with a huge amount of experience,” James added.
