Aline Constan

Associate (FCILEx)

Aline is an associate in the medical negligence team based in Basingstoke. She advises clients across the country, acting exclusively for claimants, and has dealt with a variety of cases against NHS trusts, GPs and private practitioners.

After more than 10 years working as a paralegal mainly in the medical negligence field, assisting on catastrophic injury claims, Aline qualified in 2021. She predominantly handles birth injury, brain injury and cerebral palsy in maximum severity cases but also deals with a wide range of other matters including cancer, orthopaedic, cardiology, gynaecology, psychiatric and fatal claims. She works for children and adults from all walks of life. Due to the nature of her cases she also works closely with the Court of Protection team and deputies.

I am passionate about my role in helping clients to obtain answers following traumatic events and achieving the best outcome in terms of compensation. The main reward is when clients get the support and settlement they deserve.
