Emma Pickford

Emma joined the Blackwater Law team in June 2024 as a Litigation Executive managing both medical negligence and personal injury claims.

Emma is aware that her clients and their families will often have been through very difficult and, sometimes, life-changing events and therefore, she endeavours to help make the legal process as stress-free as possible for her clients.

Emma has over 20 years of experience in personal injury litigation, which expresses how well-versed she is in all legislation. She has worked in both the Claimant and Defendant departments, giving a greater understanding of her opponent’s position and limitations. Emma is hard-working and tenacious, meaning she can obtain the best outcome for all of her clients. She also remains completely transparent throughout all proceedings and ensures her clients are aware of all possible outcomes and any risk associated.

At her previous firm, Emma assisted in running a team of 8 fee earners and support staff and also mentored junior members of the team to help them get a better understanding of the litigation process. She has also previously produced and delivered litigation based training.
