About Abbie

Wanting to pursue a career in law since a young age, Abbie has joined RWK Goodman as a legal apprentice after completing her A levels in Biology, Chemistry and History. Abbie is currently working with the  Personal Injury department, assisting associate Jennifer Seavor with Industrial Disease compensation claims.

Interests

Outside of work, Abbie enjoys running and spending time with family and friends.

Throughout school I was always set on the idea of pursuing a career in law. Undertaking an apprenticeship at RWK Goodman has given me vital experience, allowing me to understand how the work in the personal injury team really makes a difference to clients who have suffered often life changing injuries. I look forward to progressing with the team and continuing to play a part in this important work.

Asbestos and mesothelioma claims
If you have developed mesothelioma or another asbestos-related disease, we can help you seek compensation.
Compensation Protection
When someone close to you suffers a life-changing injury as a result of negligence, and receives a large compensation award, we can help administer the funds to meet their complex needs.
Injury
We understand how traumatic and life changing an injury can be, so place a team around every client to ensure you get the care, recovery, and compensation you deserve.
Cancer compensation PPC
If you or a loved one suffers from cancer, early diagnosis is vital if you’re to have the best chance of survival. So when initial signs are missed due to someone’s negligence you may be denied the best chance of returning to health. If that’s the case, we can help you make a cancer misdiagnosis compensation claim.
Fatal injury compensation PPC
If you’ve lost a loved one it will undoubtedly be a very distressing time for you and your family. This is especially the case if you believe the death occurred as a result of an accident or due to substandard care.
