Injury lawyer details for Francesca Mayes

About Francesca Mayes

I am a partner in the Newcastle office of national law firm Irwin Mitchell, the largest personal injury law firm in the UK. My team only acts for individuals with serious injuries sustained in accidents or as a result of an assault. I specialise in helping people who have sustained serious and life changing injuries, particularly individuals who have suffered brain and spinal cord injuries and multiple orthopaedic injuries. I am passionate about what I do and find it incredibly rewarding to see the difference that a successful compensation claim can make to the life of someone who has been unfortunate enough to sustain a life changing injury. I joined Irwin Mitchell in 1995 and became a Partner in 2007. I have recovered millions of pounds in compensation for my clients. I always ensure that I obtain suitable rehabilitation from specialist clinicians at the earliest possible opportunity, funded through early interim payments. My clients are a real inspiration to me and it is wonderful to see how well individuals can do with the right support from the right people at the earliest possible stage following injury. I am an accredited Fellow of APIL. I am very proud to be the first lawyer in the North East of England to have achieved the specialist APIL Brain Injury Accreditation.
