Get To Know Ally Penman

Ally deals with claims involving complex injuries and circumstances, using attention to detail and effective negotiation skills to reduce stress, and achieve the best possible outcome for her clients.

Previously, Ally worked at a local Taunton law firm on work experience during her studies. This gave her an outlook on the good she could do once she had qualified as a Legal Executive.

Ally joined Harris Fowler in August 2010 and qualified as a Fellow in the Institute of Chartered Legal Executives (FCILEx) in 2014. She started her career working predominantly as part of our dedicated Road Traffic Accident team, dealing with a variety of different road traffic personal injury claims including those clients who are unfortunate enough to suffer an injury caused by an uninsured or untraced driver.

Ally’s areas of expertise includes road traffic accidents, particularly cases involving pedestrians and cyclists. She has a varied caseload of high value personal injury and medical negligence cases, including cases involving the Motor Insurers Bureau, employer liability disputes, occupier liability and cases involving the local authorities.

Ally is passionate about helping clients and their families who have been injured as a result of negligence, who have suffered a range of injuries and poor surgical outcomes or a delay in diagnoses of cancer. She finds the most rewarding part of her job is standing up for clients and achieving the best settlement possible.

In her spare time, Ally enjoys running and spending time with her family and friends.
