Amelia was called to the Bar in 2023, having completed her pupillage at Lloyds PR Solicitors. She has a busy Crown Court practice, regularly conducting trials alone and appearing as junior counsel in more complex matters.
Her recent cases include trafficking and prostitution offences, as well as kidnap and blackmail. She recently secured an acquittal in a blackmail case in which her client was the only defendant not represented by two counsel.
Amelia is a confident and persuasive advocate, underpinned by strong analytical skills. She is currently instructed in an upcoming complex VHCC involving the fraudulent evasion of duty, in which she is led by a KC.
