Specialists in medical negligence claims
Kate Williams Medical Law Partnership is a firm that represents plaintiffs in a range of medical and surgical medical negligence matters.

Unlike other firms, our firm is committed specifically to medical negligence law. It is not just our area of expertise, it’s our passion.
Our Services
If you have an injury arising from medical, dental and/or allied health treatment, we can provide advice as to your rights to seek compensation.
Determining whether a health practitioner or hospital has been negligent requires experience, and a careful assessment of a client’s history and medical records. Knowing where to start is a big part of advising clients in medical negligence matters and a long history of specialisation in the field, as well as a background as a Registered Nurse provides Kate with unique skills to tell you where you stand.
Kate Williams’ experience allows her to access the most desirable and well considered experts in every medical field. Having worked in a major national plaintiff firm for over a decade, she has assessed more than 2,000 claims. With this knowledge spanning 25 years, she can efficiently provide clients with a case analysis, allowing cases to be assessed and commence without delay.
If there is a case to answer, we can act for you on a No-Win No-Fee basis. This means we get paid when the case is successfully settled and we take the financial risks of doing so, backing our expertise and skills.
What is “No-Win, No-Fee”?
It is not uncommon for people who have been injured to have already lost a lot of money due to the inability to work, expensive treatment costs, or both. The last thing you want to think about is paying a lawyer, especially when you can’t afford other expenses.
No-Win, No-Fee means that you don’t have to worry about paying fees unless you win your case, and have received your money.
To us, No-Win No-Fee is:
- A way of helping you, our client, pursue your rights, even if you may not be able to afford it
- A way of proving that we are confident we will WIN your case
Sometimes we can’t offer a No-Win, No-Fee agreement, but we can help with alternative or deferred payment structures. If you want to know whether your case is eligible, all you need to do is ask at your initial consultation (no charge).
