Ann Logan

Partner

Edinburgh 0131 200 1270

I have been privileged to have worked for over 30 years for clients, who through no fault of theirs have suffered injury due to an accident or medical negligence, to obtain fair recompense. 

I trained at Balfour+Manson and after broadening my horizons in London and Hong Kong, I returned in 1994. Since then I have conducted many different types of claims, including personal injury cases arising from accidents at work, on the roads and in the air. My main focus is pursuing medical negligence claims. I pursue a wide variety of cases, including those concerning birth trauma, treatment provided by surgeons, GPs, dentists, ophthalmologists, nurses, radiologists and other health professionals, and have settled many cases due to a delayed diagnosis of cancer. 

I have extensive experience in high value catastrophic claims, particularly for babies injured at birth, securing 8 figure sums in compensation for clients in cerebral palsy and brain injury cases. I have always been dedicated to assisting individuals and their families, many of whom have been through devastating life events. It gives me immense satisfaction to see a family’s quality of life transformed by the input of specialist carers, therapists and professional advisors, who can then support them to live the best life they can. There is no stronger motivation than being able to help others through a difficult journey.

I aim to be professional, and at the same time approachable and empathetic. I know how important it is to have clear and comprehensive advice about available options; to obtain answers and accountability, and ensure everything possible is done to avoid negligent mistakes being repeated in the health sector. I am very grateful to have been ranked in both clinical negligence and personal injury work annually in both the Legal 500 and Chambers legal directories, and in 2023 was awarded the Insurance Lawyer of the Year at the Legal 500 Scotland Awards. The team were also shortlisted. As a partner and head of clinical negligence, I enjoy leading my team of highly skilled lawyers who all embody the same ideals, working hard for the individual, who is at the heart of all we do.

I enjoy working with other professionals in educating both lawyers and doctors to maintain the highest standards. I am involved in lecturing and participating in government consultations, advising on the development of new organisations and procedures in Scotland, and aiming to secure efficient and early investigation and resolution of cases. 

When I am not at work you will find me trying to keep vaguely fit, mostly by dancing, and singing very badly, to Abba.
