Maya started her pupillage at Garden Court Chambers in October 2024.
Before pupillage, Maya worked on corporate accountability for rights violations in the garment industry at Labour Behind The Label, as part of a global network of trade unions and human rights organisations. In the years prior to that she worked in the legal team of a grassroots trade union of predominantly migrant and precarious workers, representing members in all stages of Employment Tribunal proceedings.
Maya is a partner of the Legal Centre Lesvos, a Greek NGO working to defend migrants’ rights through free legal information and representation, advocacy, and strategic litigation. Before becoming a partner, she worked for LCL in various capacities, including on asylum claims, criminal defence, ECtHR applications concerning collective expulsions and inhumane conditions, and a range of publications.
