Ciara joined Sperrin Law in the summer of 2020 and quickly established herself as a core member of the team. Starting with work experience, she demonstrated dedication and initiative and her placement was extended for the entire summer. After securing a place at Nottingham Law School, Ciara took a year out to work as a legal administrator at the firm. Ciara continued her work with Sperrin Law whilst completing her law degree, which she graduated from in Summer 2025. Ciara is now working towards securing qualifications to represent clients in the police station and become a solicitor.

Specialising in criminal defence, Ciara assists in the running of police station, Magistrates Court and Crown Court cases, bringing her commitment to thorough preparation and clear communication to every case she works on. With a particular focus on gang-related crime, she works closely with clients who may have become involved in crime through vulnerability and exploitation, establishing trusted relationships to ensure they feel supported throughout the legal process. Ciara’s work consists of assisting Graham Wilkinson and other case workers within the firm, contributing valuable skills and a client-centred approach to the firm.
