Elisabeth is an associate lawyer at Collette Parsons Corrin LLP – Brain & Injury Law – whose main areas of practice are plaintiff personal injury and medical malpractice. Prior to joining Brain & Injury Law, Elisabeth practised at a prominent midsize firm and a plaintiff-only injury firm, both in downtown Vancouver.
Elisabeth’s familial background in medicine (a neurologist father and orthopaedic surgeon brother) and her own experience in surviving a car accident (and subsequent legal process) inspired her to become a lawyer. As a result of her experience, she is uniquely able to empathize and support her clients. In her role as counsel, Elisabeth has appeared as an advocate before all levels of court in British Columbia (the Provincial and Supreme Courts of British Columbia, and the British Columbia Court of Appeal).
Born and raised in Vancouver, Elisabeth strongly believes in giving back to both her local and legal communities. She has served on a number of executives and boards including her current role with Parkinson Society British Columbia. This year (2022-23), Elisabeth is the president of the Trial Lawyers Association of British Columbia. In the past, she has served on the Canadian Bar Association BC Branch (“CBABC”) Young Lawyers Advisory Committee, the executives of the BC Women Lawyers Forum (vice-chair of marketing and communications) and civil litigation (member at large) sections for the CBABC.
