Practice Areas

Jennifer specialises in crime in London and the South East, she took Silk in 2020. Jennifer has a strong prosecution and defence practice in serious and complex crime. She is instructed in substantial high-profile trials including murder, manslaughter, causing or allowing the death of a child, child sexual exploitation, gang rape and misconduct in public office.

Her practice has an emphasis on the prosecution of historic, multi-complainant sexual offences and Jennifer has a track record of securing convictions in large and challenging cases involving young and vulnerable witnesses. She has developed particular expertise in enabling complainants with profound communication difficulties to give evidence.
