Sania has experience as a led junior and is regularly instructed to represent vulnerable clients, she is familiar with the additional challenges that vulnerable clients, particularly those unfamiliar with the criminal justice system, face. She is well adapted to taking extra time and care to ensure her clients are comfortable and confident with their representation.
Sania accepts a wide variety of instructions, including, but not limited to:
- Sexual offences
- Dishonesty offences such as robberies, thefts and burglaries
- False imprisonment
- Violent offences such as ABH, GBH and Intentional Strangulation

Prior to joining the Bar, Sania worked in disclosure, her role involved training officers in the fundamentals of disclosure alongside reviewing material to see if it met the disclosure test. This experience has been advantageous in her defence work, and has led to the unravelling of cases, which range from possession with intent to supply and motoring offences, to criminal damage and sexual offences.
