Congratulations to our client Zach on winning Teenager of Courage at this year's @PrideOfBritain. Our medical negligence experts helped Zach and his family’s legal claim following brain injury at birth. You continue to inspire us daily! Read his story: bit.ly/3LkP8gn

Meet Zach Eagling, the inspirational schoolboy whose successful campaign changed the law to protect people with epilepsy. A brain injury at birth left Zach with both cerebral palsy and epilepsy. During lockdown when he was 8, he walked laps of his garden to raise money for the Epilepsy Society. Shockingly, when the charity celebrated his fundraising challenge online, trolls bombarded Zach with flashing images in a deliberate attempt to trigger his epileptic seizures. Determined to ensure that this could never happen to anyone again, Zach, with the support of his mum and the Epilepsy Society, campaigned for new laws to protect those with epilepsy online. Known as Zach’s Law, the legislation officially came into effect in September 2023, making it a criminal offence to troll anyone with epilepsy to deliberately cause seizures which carries a maximum five year prison sentence. Zach is truly an incredible young man, and even more than that, he’s making such a positive difference to people’s lives. @panocruises @dailymirror
