Expertise: Crime, Appeals, Prison Law
I first joined Jordans in 2022 as a Paralegal within the Litigation Department. Since then, I have been offered a Training Contract to become the firm’s Trainee Criminal Litigation Solicitor.
I currently focus on defending clients who are facing criminal charges, both in the Magistrates and the Crown Court. I also work within the Prison Law department, helping client’s appeal their recall and providing advice and assistance in respect of their parole review. In addition to the above, I manage my own handful of cases, assisting and advising those wishing to appeal their conviction or sentence.
I have a particular interest in criminal law and aim to specialise in criminal defence upon qualifying as a Solicitor when I receive my Higher Rights of Audience and Police Station Accreditation.
When I am not at work, I enjoy visiting my family in my hometown and reading a good book.
