Holly Edwards is a member of the personal injury team and works on a variety of cases acting for claimants who have suffered serious multiple injuries such as brain injuries, spinal injuries and amputees. She also has expertise in fatal and criminal injury claims.

Holly was promoted to associate solicitor in September 2020.
Throughout her time in the clinical negligence, personal injury and Court of Protection departments at Lanyon Bowdler, Holly has gained significant experience working with clients suffering from brain injuries and local organisations that provide support and assistance to these clients. She is a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers and has been described by one QC as “meticulous in her case presentation, as is demonstrated by the detail that is included in the Witness Statements and Schedules of Loss that she drafts. Her knowledge of the facts impressed everyone and the Schedule of Loss that she drafted was of the highest standard”.
Holly regularly works with local schools on initiatives such as Young Enterprise and Mock Trials. She also leads a project called Debate-Ed, which is a programme designed to train sixth form students to deliver engaging and fun debating workshops for secondary school students in Shrewsbury. Debate-Ed will teach the children the ability to form, explain and express considered opinions through fun activities, lively discussions and formal debates.
In 2016 Holly was awarded a Mayor's Award for her contribution to the town of Shrewsbury through her Debate-Ed project. Debate-Ed was also recognised with Awards in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.
