On this special episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, produced in
partnership with Blumers Personal Injury Lawyers, host Jerome
Doraisamy speaks with Blumers director Noor Blumer (Director |
Blumers Personal Injury Lawyers, Adjunct Professor, Faculty of
Business, Government & Law | University of Canberra) about life in
medical negligence law and why it is such an important practice
area.
Noor details her experiences in “med neg”, including how she
entered this practice area, what it involves, its critical
importance to broader society, the capacity for vicarious trauma in
such work, the need for transparency with lawyers entering this
practice area, and how the age of coronavirus has impacted upon the
work of lawyers in this space.
She also delves into the lessons she has learned, as an expert in
this field (both personally and professionally), the extent to
which class actions are a feature of med neg law, what constitutes
best practice for lawyers in this space, why there is no room for
“sloppy” practitioners with such work, and why the impact that such
legal work has on the broader health system remains such an
exciting prospect moving forward.
