Niamh Wells
Trainee Legal Executive
“I enjoy supporting clients through what can often be a challenging time and helping them achieve a positive outcome. I believe it’s important that every client feels listened to, understood and supported throughout their claim.”
About me
I joined the Dental Law Partnership in May 2023 as a Paralegal in the Disclosure Team, where I gained valuable experience. In August 2025, I progressed into my current role as a Trainee Legal Executive.
I hold a first-class Law degree and I am currently studying towards my CILEX qualification. I am committed to continuing my professional development and expanding my legal knowledge and practical experience.
In my day-to-day role, I assist with the management of a varied caseload of dental negligence claims. My responsibilities include investigating allegations of negligence, preparing legal documentation, liaising with clients and other parties, obtaining expert evidence and progressing claims towards settlement. I take pride in providing a professional and supportive service, recognising the importance of clear communication and a compassionate approach when dealing with what can often be difficult and personal experiences.
I enjoy working on a varied range of dental negligence cases and supporting clients who have experienced a wide range of injuries and circumstances. I have a particular interest in cases involving burns and lacerations. Regardless of the nature of the injury, I believe every client deserves to feel listened to and supported, and I find it rewarding to help clients work towards a positive outcome and move forward following their experience.
Outside of work, I enjoy attending yoga and Pilates classes, exploring the outdoors and going on walks. I enjoy keeping active and making the most of my free time.
