Caroline’s meticulous attention to detail, pragmatic advice, personable approach and keen instinct for legal argument are among her key strengths.

Prior to joining 3PB, Caroline was a Judicial Assistant at the War Crimes Chamber of the State Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sarajevo, which culminated in assisting to draft a verdict (2007). In 2006, she worked as a researcher on the ‘Permission Stage Project’, a Nuffield Foundation-sponsored study into the mechanics of judicial review, undertaken by the Human Rights Centre at the University of Essex. This was preceded by a 7-month stint as a Legal Intern at the Public Law Project.

Following the award of an outgoing Pegasus Scholarship, in late 2011 Caroline will undertake a 2 month secondment at the Legal Resources Centre, Cape Town, one of South Africa’s pre-eminent public-interest law clinics. Cases will involve refugee and housing law.
