Samantha qualified as a solicitor in 1990. She joined BTTJ in 2002 after spending over 10 years in the City with spells at two “magic circle” firms, which included working overseas. That period was followed by two years spent with a top tier Birmingham practice.

Samantha retired as Senior Partner on 28th October 2024 having been a partner since 2006 and the Senior Partner from May 2015.
