Danielle Gibson

Communications Coordinator

Personal Injury

Manchester

Danielle works in JMW’s Personal Injury team as its specialist Communications Coordinator. She has been with the firm since August 2011 and has spent her time getting wired into the Personal Injury team with gusto, liaising with everyone in the 50+ strong department to, amongst other things, compile cracking case studies, pursue positive press stories and work wonders with the web. Danielle handles every aspect of the department’s Communication requirements, from creating copy and working with the media to making the team part of the social networking revolution thanks to Twitter and Facebook.

When not at work, she can be found doing anything from quietly sitting in a corner reading a book to defeating her boyfriend at Guitar Hero! Occasionally, she likes to take a holiday too.

Why did you join JMW?

I joined JMW because of its warm and friendly atmosphere, which I believe permeates out into the cases it handles. I know a lot of clients feel the same way and I’m keen to help promote JMW as the #1 law firm for Personal Injury!

Who would you...

Share a pint with:
I’d love to go for a pint with Eddie Izzard because I think he’s hilarious and I bet he’d have great banter.

Have cook for you:
I’d have Aussie chef Bill Granger cook me one of his relaxed dinners that he does so well. He is absolutely my favourite chef – so laid back and friendly, and his food is excellent!

Stay in with:
I’d spend a couple of separate nights in with my Mum, my best friend Tracy and my boyfriend Lee. I don’t get to see any of them enough and nights in with any of them tend to involve copious amounts of alcohol, good food and films!
