Sarah Ouko

I’m an Associate and Serious Injury Solicitor dedicated to supporting clients and their families who have sustained complex and life-changing injuries.

I’ve worked in personal injury since 2011 and have specialised in serious injury cases since 2013. I qualified as a solicitor in 2015 and have successfully handled numerous catastrophic injury cases, each valued at over £1 million. I work closely with clients to understand their goals, coordinate rehabilitation, and ensure they have the financial support they need to lead fulfilling lives throughout their recovery and the legal process.

I have seen firsthand the catastrophic impact on families I have supported since working in the personal injury field. I have my own children, and feel passionately about supporting the reduction of KSIs (Killed or Seriously Injured) and improving road safety overall. I work closely with police forces and road safety charities to make a positive impact.

I will always visit my clients and families in person, building personal relationships is crucial to developing trust as we navigate often complex situations. I’m an empathetic person and always make myself available to my clients. In litigation, whilst I am keen to develop positive relationships with the other side, I’m not afraid to take the action needed to secure the required outcomes for my clients

ANON

The client sustained a traumatic brain injury when he was knocked off his bicycle by another road user. They required a substantial amount of support and we coordinated case management input to assist him and his family prior to his discharge home, where his rehabilitation continued. Regular interim payments were obtained to support him and his family due to his lost earnings and increased care needs. A settlement of over £2.5 million was secured.

Road traffic accident causing a traumatic brain injury to a 79-year-old Claimant lacking capacity. Defendant insurers refused to fund ongoing neurorehabilitation; proceedings were issued to apply pressure, resulting in an agreed £650,000 settlement (subject to approval).

Our team combines strong technical expertise with compassionate client care, always focused on achieving the best possible outcomes. We are known for our professionalism and determination in handling complex cases while responding to each client’s individual needs.

I value being able to make a meaningful difference to the lives of clients and their families at some of the most difficult times in their lives. Supporting clients following catastrophic and fatal collisions is a privilege and helping them access rehabilitation motivates me. We support clients in every stage of the criminal proceedings and supporting families in securing justice is also really beneficial. Working with road safety charities and other important agencies allows me to contribute beyond individual cases. Building relationships with organisations that share our commitment to supporting victims and improving road safety allows me to play a small part in driving wider change.

Outside of work, I’m a busy mum who enjoys spending time with my family. I’m usually stood at the side of a football pitch or at dance competitions, and when we have a break from the extra-curricular, we enjoy building Lego creations, doing puzzles and watching Formula 1.
