Jane is a Grade 4 Prosecutor and defends and prosecutes the most serious cases for a Junior, often involving legally complex issues, expert evidence and vulnerable witnesses and defendants.

Jane is briefed in the full spectrum of criminal cases including murder, attempted murder, serious violence (baby shaking, s.18, armed robbery, kidnap), arson, bomb hoaxes, drugs conspiracies, fraud, burglary conspiracies, CSE, child cruelty, sexual offences, prison officer misconduct and road traffic cases including fatalities. She has worked for HM Revenue and Customs, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, the Health & Safety Executive and the Post Office. She has conducted complex confiscation hearings with success for both the Prosecution and Defence, due to her accounts expertise.

A tenacious opponent, she is a stickler for detail and disclosure and is determined to do justice to a case. She has only appeared 5 times at the Court of Appeal (which she sees as a good thing), including an entry in Banks on Sentence for R v G and M 2015 EWCA Crim 32 – Sex Offences with Children.
