Karen qualified as a Solicitor in 1981 and has worked as an employment lawyer in both private practice and in-house. She went on to become
Co-founder and Director of the leading search and selection consultancy, Graham Gill.
After 18 years placing lawyers in many different roles in both boom and recessionary times, Karen requalified as a career coach and specialises in career coaching and career development for lawyers.
Karen has worked with lawyers at all levels - from paralegals to partners - and her extensive knowledge of the legal profession - and of helping lawyers find alternative careers inside and outside the law - places her in an ideal position to work with lawyers facing the very real and difficult challenges that a career in the law can present. She also understands that a career change out of the law is not to be undertaken lightly and that her clients above all need to work with someone who will listen, reassure and be able to offer sound and non-judgmental assistance in absolute confidence.
Karen is a Member of the Association for Coaching and is committed to ongoing professional development. She is a graduate of the Meyler Campbell Business Coaching programme, the only programme to be accredited by the SRA and is also accredited by the WABC (Worldwide Association for Business Coaches). She has devised and delivered workshops for the Association of Women Solicitors focussing on women lawyers returning to work, and has contributed to Legal Business Magazine. Karen has also been interviewed by www.moretolaw.com
