Katie is an established practitioner in Atkin Chambers’ main practice areas.  She is recommended as a leading junior in both Chambers and Partners and Legal 500 in construction, professional negligence and product liability. They describe her as an “outstanding construction and construction-related professional indemnity advocate” and “a notable junior who frequently appears in significant litigation and complex multiparty actions before both the TCC and Court of Appeal”.
