During her LLM and Bar Course, Anna volunteered with the Independent Workers Union of Great Britain assisting private-hire drivers in their employment challenges. She also volunteered legal research for the Oxbridge Human Development Research Group and the immigration law charity, HereForGood, and as a tutor for Salisbury World refugee charity and The Access Project. Anna also interned with Advice for Individual Rights in Europe (the AIRE Centre) in the Domestic Abuse section and in the Tribunals Team. During this internship, she helped write submissions for a case in the ECtHR and assisted various clients with hearings in the immigration tribunals.
After completing the Bar Course, Anna interned at the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) Geneva headquarters, in the Refugee Status Determination section of the Department for International Protection. Here she had the opportunity to attend High-Level UN General Assembly, Human Rights Commission and UNHCR meetings, and produce Country Guidance Reports, Positions on Returns and Human Rights Situation Reports for numerous conflict zones. On returning to London, Anna worked as a Judicial Assistant for five High Court judges across the family and administrative law divisions. She assisted them with their caseloads, drafted judgments and permission to appeal decisions, and attended events and conducted legal research for the Family Justice Council. Following this, Anna joined the Public Law Team at a leading solicitors firm, working on high-profile public law litigation like the challenges to the Knowsley Suites Asylum Hotel and the Home Office policy restricting protection for victims of trafficking.
