HEAD OF TECHNICAL | HEAD OF COP & SOLICITOR / OWN CLIENT COSTS TEAMS
Commercial Litigation Personal Injury Clinical Negligence Court of Protection
When Rebecca joined MRN in 2014 as Senior Costs Draftsman, she brought over a decade of immense legal costs experience. From dealing with complex high value Commercial Litigation matters to Solicitor own Client disputes Rebecca has experience in dealing with a wide range of disputes.
Rebecca’s core strengths, motivated by the wide range of demanding challenges that are presented within these matters she is particularly knowledgeable in issues of recoverability and retainers.
By taking the time to explain the work being carried out on cases and welcoming new clients to the processes and procedures of MRN, Rebecca is able to build sincere professional relationships. Through this, she is able to build a trusting rapport with open communication channels by proving to her clients that she is genuinely on their side and is easily accessible to answer any queries. Rebecca understands that one size does not fit all when it comes to legal costs and is motivated by the challenges and complexities that each individual case brings, striving to produce results that reflect her client’s effort.
Although Rebecca joined the team with a diverse background in costs, she believes the open environment and unique approach of MRN has allowed her to expand her knowledge and refine her methods as the team openly share insights to assist each other’s growth. This has also led to Rebecca being able to refine her skillset and nurture her interests in specific areas. As a result, Rebecca has developed her knowledge and experience in a number of key areas, most notably Court of Protection.
Rebecca has significant experience in dealing with a wide range of Court of Protection matters, from small general management matters to complex litigious disputes regarding Protected Parties. It is this experience that has led to Rebecca being so passionate about ensuring that those protecting the most vulnerable are remunerated sufficiently for doing so. Rebecca now leads the Court of Protection team in assisting a large number of clients recover costs in an arena that can be somewhat difficult to navigate at times.
As part of Rebecca’s job role, she regularly hosts seminars and interactive workshops for clients on subjects varying from Solicitor own Client Costs, time recording to proportionality. She recognises that costs can, at times, not be the most scintillating of topics for practitioners but by being approachable and having the skillset needed, is able to make such topics interesting and thought provoking.
In respect of outside of work, the majority of Rebecca’s free time is happily consumed by her very large family, spending weekends to adventure and explore new places together!
