She has a particular interest in human rights, professional negligence (including clinical negligence, solicitors' and surveyors' negligence), environmental and planning law, professional disciplinary law, and employment and equality law. She appears regularly in the county courts and the High Court for both Claimants and Defendants in a range of professional and clinical negligence, personal injury, environmental and contractual matters. She has acted for and against the Environment Agency in enforcement cases and in private law matters such as nuisance, contaminated land and pollution.

She has advised in and acted for Customs in cases such as carousel fraud and restoration cases.

Her experience in professional disciplinary cases includes both advisory and advocacy work and involves appearances before the General Medical Council (both IOC and FTP), the Nursing and Midwifery Council (Restoration hearings) and HC90(9) proceedings.

In addition, she has undertaken research for government departments such as the Department of Trade and Industry, and assisted the Treasury Solicitor's Private Law Team with a variety of claims, particularly those against the Home Office involving prisoners and misfeasance in public office.
