Karen Rawsthorne's Expertise
Karen has more than 20 years' experience of healthcare defence work. After qualifying in London, she acted for numerous Health Authorities and NHS Trusts, providing general advice on a wide range of issues and defending compensation claims.
She undertook claims work for NHS Resolution (formerly the NHS Litigation Authority) from its inception in 1995 and for several years thereafter.

Her current practice reflects her expertise in the defence of proceedings brought against individuals by the General Medical Council. This expertise also includes the representation of healthcare providers in criminal, judicial review and regulatory proceedings, at inquests and at public inquiries.
