Goddard joins from DAC Beachcroft, where she led the London disease team, bringing over 25 years of experience in high-value employers’ liability and public liability litigation.
Specialising in asbestos, stress and poisoning claims, Goddard has a strong focus on emerging risks, including occupational cancer and Covid-19. ‘The last decade has seen a significant increase in incidents of work-related stress,’ she says. ‘I’m delighted to be joining Clyde & Co’s market-leading disease team at this time.’
