Biography
I am a Senior Associate Solicitor in the Medical Negligence team in Irwin Mitchell’s London office. I trained at the firm and qualified in September 2014, having already spent 16 months working in the Medical Negligence team.
I am accredited as a Clinical Negligence Specialist and Senior Litigator with the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers and am a member of the AvMA (Action Against Medical Accidents) Specialist Clinical Negligence Panel. I specialise in compensation claims for individuals who have been injured as a result of clinical negligence by GPs, hospitals, private consultants and other healthcare providers.
I have a varied case load which includes claims arising from obstetric, neonatal, anaesthetic, ophthalmic, surgical, cardiac, psychiatric and emergency care. I also have a number of fatal cases and assist families with the inquest process.
I have significant experience of birth injury claims. I am committed to getting answers for families who have lost a loved one as a result of poor medical care and to assisting in the rehabilitation process for those who have been injured as a result of negligence.
Clients praise my personal touch and exceptional service and AvMA describe me as an experienced and confident litigator with a strong client focus who is open to continued learning and evolving my practice.
I have significant trial experience and my cases have featured in all media platforms including newspapers, radio and television.

"Irwin Mitchell have made such a difficult period of time go so smoothly for myself & my family. The team have been a pleasure to deal with; Dami, Georgie, Jassica & Vanessa. Have been a brilliant team to deal with over the last three years and they have exceeded my expectations. What I am most grateful for is that although they were hired to do a job I always felt a personal touch and genuine care from all of the staff.

They have been amazing throughout and I would highly recommend Irwin Mitchell. Thank you so much!” - Kelly, former client
"Irwin Mitchell-Medical Negligence are experts in this field, in particular Leena Savjani and Georgie Cushing. I’ve received an exceptional service from them both when things were very difficult. They kept me updated throughout the 3 years. Every time I had any communication with them I felt my case was important to them and no matter how many times I asked the same question they both were more than happy to clarify. I would highly recommend Leena Savjani and Georgie Cushing, a great asset to Irwin Mitchell." - Arti, former client

Highly experienced, best service, and best staff." - 5* Trustpilot review
"Irwin Mitchell have been dealing with my case for a number of years. During that time we have been kept fully up to date on all aspects of the case. It has not been the easiest case for them I’m sure but they managed to keep pushing forward to get us a really good end result. Leena Savjani and Georgie Cushing have been instrumental in the case reaching conclusion with additional support from Thomas Riis-Bristow and Beth Whittaker working closely with them on the case. We have got to know the solicitors really well and even under the circumstances involved, they were professional whilst also caring regarding the situation." 5* Trustpilot review
