Profile / Experience
I am a Public Law Solicitor within James Packer's Public Law Team at Duncan Lewis Solicitors City of London office.
I originally joined Duncan Lewis in 2015 as a Caseworker having worked formerly at Courtois Lebel, Paris and Goldman Sachs International in London.
I subsequently completed my training to become a Solicitor with Duncan Lewis and was admitted to the roll in August 2020. I moved to Geneva, Switzerland in September 2020, where I was engaged as a volunteer legal advisor for AsyLex an NGO that provides pro-bono legal advice to asylum seekers throughout the Swiss Confederation and as a Legal Officer at Law Centre NI working with the Syrian Refugee Resettled population on policy and advocacy initiatives to improve their access to justice throughout Northern Ireland.
My specialism is in international human rights and public law; with a particular expertise in trafficking and asylum matters alongside a wide ranging practice in judicial review claimant challenges - particularly those related to immigration and civil liberties. I also specialise in other forms of civil litigation, including claims for unlawful detention and false imprisonment.
I am fluent in French.
