Vicky Whitney leads the ‘outstanding’ Cheadle-based practice at CFG Law alongside Emily Kalwak, which is known for its distinctive focus on catastrophic injuries sustained due to road traffic incidents. Whitney is known for her vast knowledge of traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury cases, routinely securing interim payments for clients. Kalwak routinely assists clients who have sustained life changing injuries, often obtaining early payments from defendant insurers. Promoted to partner in April 2023, Emma Jones stands out due to her expansive expertise in cases involving traumatic brain injuries caused by road traffic accidents, with her main focus being rehabilitation for claimants, while Katie Pendower regularly acts for both adults and children in severe orthopaedic injuries in the course of employment.
