Independent Occupational Therapist & Expert Witness

“Whether it be acting as an expert witness or as a case manager, Rachel is excellent. Her reports are thorough and well researched. She is compassionate and understanding of the needs of the client yet retains the necessary objectivity so that her opinions can be trusted and, in a litigation context, stand up to scrutiny. She understands both roles and undertakes both with utmost professionalism.”

- Sion Kingston - Lead Partner, PI Leeds Irwin Mitchell LLP

“Diligent, timely, and thorough clearly based on a wealth of experience. Rachel delivers clear, well-supported opinions that are integral to our cases. Highly recommend.”

- Jennifer Buchanan - Partner, Fieldfisher LLP

“Rachel provides excellent reports, even in particularly complicated cases and when assessing clients who are lacking a willingness to engage. She studies the medical evidence and other documentation in detail and provides a clear and well-presented opinion which is very carefully thought through. Rachel is a pleasure to work with. She understands the litigation process and the pressures of deadlines and very much works as part of a team to ensure that she completes her instructions within the necessary timescales.”

- Senior Associate, Fieldfisher LLP

“Highly recommend Rachel Wilson and her team having used Rachel both for private therapeutic work with clients and as an expert, she is the utmost professional. She goes over and above for her clients and her caring and empathetic nature is second to none.”

- Sarah Coles - Partner, Irwin Mitchell LLP

“We used Rachel to deal with a difficult and sensitive employment health situation. She and her colleague were both very professional and helpful, enabling us to achieve a satisfactory result. We would certainly use her again and would definitely recommend her.”

- JR - Admin Manager

“I have used Rachel Wilson as a treating OT on a complex polytrauma / amputee case of mine. She displayed true excellence as a treating OT, drawing on her vast breadth of knowledge, not only as a treating OT, but her understanding of the wider medicolegal industry, drawing on her skills as a case manager and care/OT expert witness. Not only does she develop great therapeutic relationships with clients, she is able to navigate very challenging circumstances in a thorough approach, demonstrating due diligence to her clinical rationale, which has been well received by referring parties and greatly assists with funding approvals. Rachel ensures clients are fully aware of rehabilitation options recommended to enable rehabilitation to be delivered in a client-centered and timely approach.”

- Margot Widdup - Training Lead and Clinical Supervisor / Case Manager, Unite Professionals

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Rachel on multiple cases over the past eight years. Her compassion, client-centred approach, and meticulous attention to detail consistently stand out. Rachel delivers exceptional service, clearly reflected in the positive outcomes she achieves with her clients. Working with her is always a rewarding experience, and I look forward to every opportunity to work together again.
