Regulatory and Professional Conduct

Sadie is an Associate in our regulatory and professional conduct team.

A criminal litigation and regulatory law specialist, Sadie works across coroner inquests, criminal defence, private prosecutions, public inquiries and professional misconduct proceedings — with a strong background in police misconduct.

Sadie has represented clients facing criminal prosecution for serious offences brought by the Crown Prosecution Service, Serious Fraud Office, Trading Standards, HMRC and private prosecutors. Sadie also has experience of representing both individuals and organisations in bringing private prosecutions.

Sadie’s clients span a range of sectors including leisure and hospitality, housing solutions and healthcare. She’s experienced in handling professional conduct matters in the education and public sector and has extensive experience representing police officers — up to the level of Superintendent and Deputy Assistant Commissioner — facing both criminal and gross misconduct proceedings, as well as teachers facing misconduct proceedings before the Teachers Regulation Agency.

Her clients value her approachable and transparent communication style. She fosters an open dialogue with clients where they’re free to ask questions about their case and the legal process generally. Sadie keeps clients updated with the prospects and progress of their case with honest yet sensitive discussions about any difficulties that they face.
