Sophie began pupillage at Deans Court in September 2025 under the supervision of Nicola Carroll.

Prior to commencing pupillage Sophie worked for HMCTS in probate developing her case management skills and client care. 

Sophie regularly accepts instructions for noting briefs across criminal and regulatory matters. She has also had the opportunity to observe busy lists in the Magistrates’ Courts and a range of issues in the Crown Court in order to prepare her for what she hopes will be a busy criminal practice.
