She is approachable and personable which makes her a popular choice with lay and professional clients. She is retained as standing counsel by institutional clients including investment, hedge and pension funds as well as major financial institutions. She is noted for taking a rounded approach to cases where reputational risk can be as important as winning a particular dispute.

Katrina is an experienced advocate and is frequently instructed as sole counsel to appear in the higher courts.
