Anna began the third seat of her Training Contract, with our Family Law team, in March 2025. She is based in our Canterbury office.

Anna graduated with a First in Ancient & Medieval History from the University of Birmingham, and then spent a decade in the music and entertainment industries before making a career change to law.

Anna originally joined Girlings in February 2020 as a secretary in the Family Law Department, while also studying for the Graduate Diploma in Law. Having completed the GDL with a Commendation in 2021, Anna proceeded to the Legal Practice Course, from which she graduated with a Distinction in October 2023.
