Senior Associate
Aoife O'Kane

Aoife O’Kane qualified as a solicitor in December 2017, having specialised primarily in plaintiff medical negligence litigation both during her traineeship and since qualification.

Aoife has a wealth of experience advising adults and children in relation to medical negligence claims.

Aoife has represented parents whose children have suffered catastrophic injuries because of a delay in delivering the baby, failure to adequately monitor the CTG trace, inappropriate use of forceps or failure to diagnose hypoglycaemia in a baby causing brain injury or cerebral palsy.

Aoife represents people who have suffered from a spinal injury because of a delay in diagnosing cauda equina or other neurological injuries.

Aoife also specialises in advising women who suffer from gynaecological injuries because of poor medical care and who have suffered from injuries due to failed diagnoses of sepsis.

Aoife is mindful that her clients have been through a traumatic experience and often suffer from serious, long- term injuries because of medical negligence. She is very much aware that pursuing litigation can be daunting for many people and she ensures that she provides clients with the support they need throughout the process.
