Insights and events
Georgia helps public and private sector clients on a range of regulatory issues, including in commercially significant and politically contentious areas.
As an associate in the Public Law & Policy team, Georgia is engaged in all stages of government decision-making, from working with innovative businesses to shape policy and regulation that affects them, to acting for clients on both sides of high-profile judicial reviews.
Georgia’s academic background in Politics and International Affairs gives her a great insight into how government in the UK really works, enabling her to both assist companies to engage effectively with government as well as helping public bodies to make robust decisions.
Georgia has also acted for pro bono clients in applications to the European Court of Human Rights, including securing an award of interim measures that required the Russian Federation to ensure that the death penalty imposed on two British nationals captured by Russian-controlled forces while serving in the Ukrainian armed forces was not carried out.
