Career

Sarah is our leading lawyer on redress, abuse and assault claims. Recognised by the Legal 500 since 2015 as a standout expert in child and adult abuse claims, as well as safeguarding advice, Sarah has a particular interest in working with social care, sports and faith organisations as well as many charities.

As a result of her experience, Sarah has been asked to give evidence and advise clients in responding to public inquiries.  She dealt with the personal injury claim that followed the tragic death of Victoria Climbié and has been involved in a number of high-profile group actions, taking cases to the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court.

She advises clients on risk management, child protection, human rights, public inquiries, redress schemes and Data Protection Act issues.

Her experience in group actions and redress schemes has inevitably led her to have a real concern about litigating in a manner which is both compassionate for complainants and proportionate for our clients. She brings a genuine focus to managing litigation costs.

Sarah sits as a Deputy Costs Judge in the SCCO.
