Getting to know… Erin McBride LLB!

At MLA, we're nothing without our team. So much so, we've decided it's time that our staff get their moment in the spotlight!


Without further ado, let's get to know Erin McBride LLB that little bit better:

 

About Erin –

A nine-year PQE Industrial Disease Solicitor with over 18 years experience in the PI (Personal Injury) industry, Erin joined MLA as the Expert Liaison and Industrial Disease Manager in January 2016.

Erin is extremely passionate about access to justice. Her role in overseeing the Operations and Supply Teams enables her to ensure that each piece of medical evidence produced is of the highest quality. Erin aims to exceed client expectations every time!

Erin filters her knowledge throughout the teams to aid their understanding of intricate cases and bespoke requirements

 

Where did you grow up?

"I was born and grew up in a small village in Co Tyrone, then moved to Christleton outside Chester to complete my LPC in 2007. My first job in England was in Liverpool City Centre. I fell in love with the city and haven't left!"

 

How does your education connect to your professional career? What about personal experiences?

 "I studied law and qualified as a solicitor in 2012 and specialised in industrial disease and multi-track cases. [Having this experience helps me to know] what our customers want and what is important to them as I was once in their shoes instructing MLA".

 

How long have you been working in your field?

"Since 2004 – [my] first position as a legal assistant in a PI firm".

 

What are you complimented on most in your work?

"My attention to detail, and I'm a stickler for grammar"!

 

What's your biggest accomplishment?

(Can I have three, Erin asks? Of course!) "The first would be qualifying as a solicitor in 2012, secondly setting up a military reporting service at MLA, building the panel to ensure that we can offer the same level of outstanding service that we achieve on [our] Industrial Disease reporting.

Last but not least, achieving Tier 1 status and winning Medico-Legal Provider of the Year 2020 with MLA!"

 

What are you most passionate about professionally and personally?

Professionally – Access to justice, making sure that we provide claimants with the best quality medical evidence on time to assist them in obtaining the compensation they deserve.

Personally - Family and once my son is in bed, you'll find me pounding the treadmill to de-stress!

 

What would be your personal motto?

 'Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today' – I can't live without a to-do list, and I always start with the most challenging task to make sure it all gets done!"
