Eloise Power

Practice Areas

Eloise is an experienced medical barrister with a particular interest in cases which raise complex points of law or are of wider social importance. Her practice includes higher court advocacy, cutting-edge consent cases and defective medical devices such as hip prostheses, breast implants and trans-vaginal mesh. Eloise aims to solve clients’ problems with clarity, efficiency and compassion. An earlier edition describes her advocacy style, noting that “she is passionate and razor sharp on her feet.”

Eloise’s clinical negligence practice encompasses a wide range of cases including amputations, spinal injury, gynaecological/ obstetric work, delayed diagnosis and orthopaedic matters. She is regularly instructed in actions concerning sexual abuse committed by medical practitioners. Some examples of her cases are provided below.

In May 2022, Cambridge University Press published Jha and Power: Lessons from Medicolegal Cases in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, which Eloise co-edited together with Swati Jha, a leading urogynaecologist.
