Jane's graduation from Durham University was followed by her qualification as a solicitor in 1996 with Batcheldors, a firm that later merged with Woodfines. In 2005, Jane embarked on a significant career move by joining the First Law Partnership (FLP) to focus on developing her criminal legal aid practice. During her time at FLP, she devoted herself to establishing a strong reputation and client base within the local criminal courts. Jane continued to expand her expertise by attaining her higher rights of audience and by incorporating regulatory law into her areas of specialism.

With her wealth of experience, Jane has diligently developed her practice, regularly representing individuals accused of a diverse range of offences including sexual offences, violence, serious driving offences, and fraud and representing those investigated and prosecuted for regulatory offences alleging breaches of the law relating to health and safety, trading standards and food safety.

Having dedicated over 25 years to the Criminal Justice System, Jane continues to skilfully and robustly represent the interests of individuals and businesses facing investigations and prosecutions by the Police, CPS, Local Authorities, the Health and Safety Executive, and other Crown Agencies. Jane's commitment to robustly representing her clients and her adeptness in navigating complex cases continue to be invaluable assets to our team and the clients we serve.
