Hull solicitor Eliza Hudgell has been named as one of the country’s standout young legal talents after a year impressing with her work on major national cases.
Following in the footsteps of her father Neil, who heads the family-named firm she works at, the 27-year-old is now a key member of the firm’s growing civil liberties team, one that has won national acclaim.
Over the past 12 months she has supported families who lost loved ones in the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing as a public inquiry has been staged, and former subpostmasters wrongfully jailed as a result of the Post Office Horizon scandal, which is widely recognised as one of the biggest miscarriages of justice in UK legal history.
