Natalie is a highly skilled barrister specialising in housing, property, and personal injury law. She is recognised for her exceptional advocacy, meticulous written work, and ability to deliver practical, persuasive, and strategic advice to clients.

Before joining chambers, Natalie built a busy and diverse common law and crime practice, where she quickly established herself as an outstanding trial advocate. She regularly appeared in both the Magistrates’ and Crown Courts, prosecuting and defending in serious criminal matters. This extensive trial experience honed her forensic precision, her ability to conduct incisive cross-examinations, and her calm effectiveness in handling last-minute evidential developments.

Beyond her practice, Natalie is deeply committed to public service. She currently serves as a school governor at a large all-through school in South London, overseeing provision for students aged 3 to 18. She previously served as a trustee for the charity Z2K, which provides advice and advocacy for people living in poverty, and as Chair of the Union of Brunel Students Trustee Board. Through these roles, she has demonstrated her ability to assess organisational risk, drive positive change, and contribute to effective governance.

Natalie accepts instructions on a direct access basis.

Outside of practice, she enjoys travelling with her two young children, sharing with them her love of new cultures and diverse cuisines.

Business Law

Natalie advises and appears in a broad range of commercial matters. She has particular experience in gaining successful outcomes in urgent interim relief applications.

As well as representing clients at interlocutory hearings, (including applications for summary judgment, setting aside judgment in default, relief from sanctions and CCMCs), Natalie is regularly instructed to appear for clients in both the County Court and the High Court in small claims, fast track and multi-track trials.

Property Law

A significant proportion of Natalie’s’ practice comprises disputes relating to real property and landlord and tenant disputes and she is always happy to receive instructions in this field.

Natalie has experience in the field of service charge and administration charge recovery. She regularly advises on these matters and appears in the County Court and the First-tier Tribunal on behalf of landlords, managing agents and tenants in relation to these disputes including forfeiture. She also frequently advises parties on the breach of lease provisions generally.

Natalie also has extensive experience both advising and representing clients in a broad range of property disputes and the commercial / contractual issues that arise. Natalie has been instructed to deal with applications to strike out, she has been instructed in successful emergency injunction applications in the High Court, and emergency applications for relief from forfeiture.

Housing Law

Natalie provides expert advice and representation for landlords, tenants, freeholders, and leaseholders in a broad range of property disputes — including possession proceedings, disrepair claims, anti-social behaviour injunctions, complex lease interpretations, and matters arising out of or in conjunction with section 20 consultations.

She has frequently provided crucial advice on the validity of section 21 notices, including issues surrounding tenancy deposit protection and gas safety certificate requirements.

Before coming to the Bar, Natalie worked as a caseworker at Z2K, representing vulnerable clients before Social Security Appeal Tribunals. This early exposure to the realities of inequality and hardship continues to inform her dedication to fairness, justice, and achieving the best outcomes for all her clients.

Personal Injury Law

Natalie is regularly instructed in small claims, fast and multi-track trials, disposal hearings, and MoJ Stage 3 hearings. In her personal injury practice, Natalie acts for both claimants and defendants in claims arising from road traffic accidents, workplace incidents, and public liability matters. She is known for her clarity in drafting, her tenacity in advocacy, and her pragmatic, solution-focused approach. Natalie also advises on quantum and is also open to accepting instructions on a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA) basis.

Quantum issues that also present themselves alongside road traffic accident claims are claims for credit hire; as a result, Natalie is live to the commercial considerations underpinning credit hire claims as well as the impact upon and experiences of lay clients attending court in relation to these claims. Natalie is well versed in the technical arguments run in this complex and developing area of law. 

Direct Access

Natalie is authorised to accept instructions direct from members of the public. She encourages clients who are considering this route to contact Chambers and discuss their problem.

In suitable cases, Natalie can provide client conferences, written advices and representation at court. Natalie accepts public access work across Chambers’ areas of expertise.
