Lois Norris is a member of the Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence groups.

Lois has a nationwide serious injury practice, including brain injury, spinal and amputation cases.

Lois’s background pre-pupillage was in catastrophic injury (as the legal assistant to Gerard McDermott KC) and her interest remains in this field.

She has particular expertise in drafting schedules and founded Schedule School, a free resource designed to take junior practitioners through catastrophic injury schedules, one head of loss at a time. She regularly provides schedule workshops.

In her clinical negligence practice, she handles a variety of cases including cases involving amputation, birth injury cases and vision loss.

Lois represents clients at inquests, both in personal injury and clinical negligence.

Recently, she represented the partner of the late Police Sergeant Ratana, after a man detained by the Metropolitan Police concealed a firearm during a stop and search on the street, and later discharged it in custody, fatally wounding PS Ratana.

She has expertise with both motor vehicle deaths and deaths caused by the state of the highway (including cases involving mud and standing water).

In addition, she carries out clinical negligence inquests. Her recent inquests relate to a failure to scan (resulting in a finding of neglect), a failure to change a catheter (resulting in a finding of neglect) and a failure to provide lifesaving surgery.
