Career
Katie joined Chambers in October 2020 following successful completion of her pupillage. She predominantly practises in the areas of criminal defence and prosecution. She regularly appears in the Magistrates’ Court, the Youth Court and the Crown Court. Her experience covers a wide range of criminal matters, including violent offences, public disorder, robbery, burglary, fraud, possession of weapons, drug possession/supply and driving offences.
Aside from her criminal practice, Katie accepts instructions in the area of professional discipline. She recently completed a 3 month secondment with the Nursing and Midwifery Council, in which she presented cases involving the full range of regulatory concerns at all stages of proceedings.
Prior to starting pupillage, Katie had a career in banking. She held an FX analyst position at investment bank Brown Brothers Harriman. Katie assisted with a wide range of matters, including ensuring client compliance with EU and US regulatory obligations, managing client contact and instructing counsel regarding trading and regulatory contractual matters.
Whilst undertaking her legal studies, Katie volunteered with the Criminal Justice Initiative at the University of Sheffield. This involved researching appeal grounds and assisting with the drafting of an application to the Criminal Cases Review Commission in a historic murder case. She gained further experience during the Bar Professional Training Course, interning with leading criminal defence firm Tuckers Solicitors.
