When it comes to disaster she's a natural
Article Abstract:
Geraldine McCool, specialist in personal injury actions and partner with London law firm Leigh, Day and Co, has been successful in her career because she has always been extremely focused and has received a great deal of support from her family. She benefited from the fact that she entered the field of personal injury when it was only just developing, and learnt a great deal from leading the 'disaster' team at Panone Napier. She believes that the key to effective management is ensuring commitment from others, and that this can be easier for women than for men.

'As a child you are abused, but it is only as an adult that the real suffering comes through, and the guilt, self-hatred and anger start to eat away at you.' (UK government announces inquiry into child abuse; case study)
Article Abstract:
The decision by the UK government to hold an inquiry into child abuse will serve to revive very difficult memories for many adults who were abused as children. Many victims of child abuse find that it is only as an adult that the psychological damage really begins to show. They often feel guilt, self-hatred and anger, and many are overwhelmed by a sense of self-destruction. They never fully recover from their childhood experience, and usually find it hard to form lasting relationships.
