Jessica joined Chambers in October 2024 following the successful completion of her pupillage under the supervision of Marcus Dignum KC, Isaac Hogarth, and James Pickering. She accepts instructions in all areas of personal injury, appearing in court several times a week while developing a busy paperwork practice. She is interested in all the core areas of Chambers’ expertise.

Prior to pupillage, Jessica worked for HMCTS in an Employment Tribunal and a criminal court, and for a healthcare regulator. She also undertook ProBono work, notably representing families in appeals against school exclusions (via the School Exclusion Project). In addition, during her legal studies she volunteered with Advocate (formerly the Bar ProBono Unit), Liberty, and various law clinics, gaining experience across a breadth of civil work. Jessica will consider cases on a ProBono basis.

Jessica studied biomedical sciences, where she graduated with a first-class degree. In her legal studies, Jessica obtained a distinction in both the GDL and Bar Course, and was supported by Inn and institution scholarships.
