She also supports brain tumour charities, records podcasts with prominent brain tumour activists, produces blogs and keeps up to date with medical advancements and research into this area.
Deepti’s work is driven by her passion for supporting brain injury survivors with care and empathy, helping them to navigate their lives following a serious injury.

She supports her clients with compassion through all stages of the litigation including investigating the claim, issuing court proceedings, representing clients at court hearings and working to reach a successful conclusion.
