Imran Saddique & Amy Barron—Novum Law

Double appointment for personal injury firm

Novum Law, the specialist personal injury law firm, has appointed two new solicitors to provide expert legal advice to claimants as demand for its services continues to grow throughout the South West. 

Imran Saddique joins from Slater and Gordon in Aldershot, Hampshire, where he worked for five years on personal injury cases gaining valuable experience in claimant litigation. Imran will be based at Novum Law’s offices in Swindon, joining Director Huw Ponting’s team which specialises in representing clients with severe, traumatic brain injuries. These cases are generally extremely complex and involve high value compensation sums.

Amy Barron, who qualified as a solicitor in 2010, joins Novum Law from Basingstoke-based Lamb Brooks Solicitors where she specialised in serious personal injury compensation claims and medical negligence cases. A graduate from the University of Warwick and Bournemouth University, Amy will be based at Novum Law’s rapidly growing offices in Salisbury. There she will join director Neil Elliott’s expert personal injury and medical negligence team who regularly deal with multi-million pound damages claims.

Chief executive of Novum Law, Thomas Sheppard, said: “A very warm welcome to Imran and Amy as they take this next important step in their career development. Our strong reputation as one of the leading specialist personal injury law firms in the South of England means that we can attract the brightest, most talented solicitors who really want to further their careers in a young, dynamic business that’s growing and constantly moving forwards. I look forward to seeing both Imran and Amy make their mark in their respective teams.”
