I completed my training contract at GCR under the supervision of Sean Curran (partner). As a trainee I worked extensively as a police station representative and a litigator. I qualified as a higher rights advocate and became a duty solicitor, and as such I gained a great deal of experience working as an advocate in the Magistrates Court and the Crown Court. I continued to work closely with Sean Curran and I gained valuable experience working on an array of criminal cases ranging from common assault to murder, and from theft to serious financial fraud. I worked extensively in representing journalists investigated as part of the major police investigations into phone hacking.I worked on several high profile business crime cases which was a great platform to progress my career in Business Crime and Regulation.
