Sally Ann

I am a chemistry graduate, qualified solicitor and aspiring author.

I graduated from the University of Durham (University College) in July 2010, achieving a 2.1 in Chemistry (BSc (Hons)).

After a gap year, I was offered a training contract in July 2011 at Taylor Wessing, a top 20 international firm.

I studied the Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL) and Legal Practice Course (LPC) at BPP Law School, achieving the highest mark in my trainee intake in both years of law school. In my second year of law school (LPC), I achieved the third highest mark in my law school intake of approximately 2000 students.

I undertook my two-year training contract at Taylor Wessing between September 2013 and August 2015 and qualified as a solicitor on 1 September 2015. I received two offers from Taylor Wessing for associate roles on qualification. However, my long-term involvement in numerous pro bono projects inspired me to actively pursue a career in human rights law. Over a period of 18 months, I volunteered in Buenos Aires, Mumbai and New York, working with victims and survivors of various human rights violations.
My most recent role (March 2017 – November 2018) was at Bolt Burdon Kemp, a national law firm based in Islington, representing survivors of sexual and domestic abuse.

In November 2018, I made the decision to leave Bolt Burdon Kemp to finish my first novel which is based on injustices in New York’s prison and parole system.
