Crime and fraud:

Position

Natasha joined Chambers in March 2021 following the successful completion of pupillage.

Natasha is developing a broad criminal practice, and defends and prosecutes in the magistrates’ courts, youth courts and Crown Court. She has been praised by her clients for her ‘meticulous attention to detail’ and ‘calm and measured submissions which command the attention of the court’.

 

She has acted in cases involving serious and domestic violence, possession of weapons and drugs and public order offences. Natasha is also regularly instructed in road traffic matters. 

Throughout her pupillage, Natasha assisted her supervisors on cases involving a broad spectrum of serious and complex criminal offences including bribery, murder, child cruelty and fraud. Natasha has further assisted members of Chambers on regulatory cases and looks forward to incorporating such work into her own practice.

Prior to commencing pupillage, Natasha worked as a paralegal in the white-collar crime team of a busy criminal defence firm where she assisted on complex financial crime cases and associated confiscation proceedings. Previously, she worked as a police emergency call handler and as a legal assistant at a leading cyber security company.
