I run a varied caseload including cases involving:
- Fatalities
- Orthopaedic injuries

- Stillbirths and neonatal deaths
- Serious brain injury
- Surgical negligence
- Infection claims
- Gynaecological and obstetric claims
What inspired you to get into law?
I've always wanted to go into a career which is both rewarding and challenging. The legal process is complex but I enjoy guiding and supporting clients through this and achieving the best financial settlement for them.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your role?
This certainly has to be getting answers for clients and achieving settlement for them in order to help them rebuild their lives.

What do you do away from the office?
Outside of work, you can find me at the gym or socialising with my friends and family.
Testimonials
"We’ve had a fantastic experience working with Saydie Farrell on our case. She made what felt like a never ending, difficult case feel easy and comfortable for my mother. We are truly appreciative and thankful to have a supportive team who have been ever so understanding and patient with my mother during her lowest time. We highly recommend Irwin Mitchell to everyone. The process was simplified greatly for us and it was an amazing experience working closely with Saydie. She will be greatly missed by our family and wish her all the best." - 5* Google Review
"I could write a book on how and why Saydie Farrell is such an amazing solicitor. Not only is she absolutely fantastic in every way, regarding her official job title, but the compassion and empathy she gave, throughout the entire process, was a shining light through very challenging times. The other team members I worked with, Jack Roff and Charisse Tapang were also fantastic. Along with Saydie, they were always lightning fast at replying to any queries I had, and very patiently guided me through, each and every time I needed to make input. There were inevitably times when certain technical legal terminologies and processes, which I didn't understand or was confused about, would crop up. They made sure to take the time to explain everything so that I understood fully, which ensured that I was consistently and totally informed at every stage. I honestly cannot thank Saydie, Charisse, Jack, and the entire Irwin Mitchell team enough for their amazing service from beginning to successful conclusion." - 5* Trustpilot Review

"Saydie has been fantastic and really attentive in our case, particularly throughout the last stages of the case. She ensured that we were all aware of what was occurring with our case. She has been available at all times when necessary. Throughout the case, she has been excellent. At the end of the day, we found her to be really kind as well; after an unforeseen tragedy occurred, Saydie took excellent care of one of my closest family members. Personally, I wanted to express my gratitude, and as a family, we owe her." - Mr M, Client (5* Trustpilot review)
"Eleanor, Saydie and the entire team have been extremely professional throughout a delicate process in dealing with us as bereaved parents. They have been very calm and sensitive throughout and it never felt like a pressured or stressful process. We are so pleased to have had a positive outcome for our son after initially being unsure about whether to take his case forward. The fact that the Trust admitted liability for his stillbirth has enabled us to move forward and give our son the closure that he deserves. We would highly recommend the team at Birmingham and send our personal thank yous again to everyone involved in our case." - 5* Trustpilot review
