Sarah joins our Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence teams as a pupil under the supervision of Jimmy Barber.

Prior to starting pupillage, Sarah worked as a paralegal at Tayntons Solicitors for 3 years. She worked in the Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence department, gaining experience across a variety of cases, from low-value RTA claims, through to high-value clinical negligence disputes.  She dealt with these cases throughout their lifetime, working on issues of liability and quantum, as well as case management. This has provided Sarah with a valuable insight into how solicitors work, and the importance of the counsel-solicitor relationship.

During Sarah’s time at university, she volunteered with various projects, including the University Law Clinic which provided free advice to people in difficult situations. She enjoyed the process of researching unfamiliar areas of law, and having hands-on contact with real clients.
