Nadia Kerr takes helm of Fletchers Solicitors’ cycling team

Fletchers Solicitors has appointed Nadia Kerr as a partner to lead its dedicated cycling team including its Cycle SOS brand, which Fletchers acquired in 2022.

Nadia’s background

An avid cyclist herself, with more than 30 years of legal experience representing cyclists and other vulnerable road users, Nadia joined Fletchers from JMW Solicitors where she headed up the cycling claims team, following previous roles as a partner at Pannone LLP and in the senior management team at Minister Law.

Nadia is also a trustee and director for the national cycling charity, Cycling UK, where Fletchers’ is a legal partner. She reports to Victoria Marsden, director of personal injury.

She was named in Cycling UK’s 2021 ‘100 Women in Cycling’, runs a women’s cycle group in south Manchester, and was also a founding member and director of WalkRide GM, a campaign group focused on walking, wheeling and cycling in Greater Manchester.

Alongside her extensive legal career, Nadia is a key ambassador for road safety and active travel. Her advocacy efforts have led to improvements in road layouts and targeted resources for repairing dangerous potholes, and she has previously appeared in the media appealing for government funding for pothole repairs.

Commenting on the new hire

Nadia said: “I’m delighted to be joining the team at Fletchers, who have a stellar reputation as a leader in personal injury cycling accident claims.

“The safety of cyclists on UK roads is still of utmost concern and I’m committed to advocating for safer cycling for vulnerable road users, as well as delivering access to justice for my clients.”

She is set to join Fletchers’ growing two-wheel team, under the direction of Victoria Marsden, director of personal injury.

Victoria said: “We’re delighted to welcome Nadia to the team. She has an outstanding client-centred ethos and is tireless in her pursuit of justice and long-term reform. She will make a meaningful impact to the lives of her clients, and the broader cycling community at Fletchers.”
