Amira is a Solicitor in our in-house legal costs department.
Amira joined Bolt Burdon Kemp in April 2020 as a Paralegal working alongside solicitors in the Military department. She then completed her training contract with seats in the Abuse and Costs departments, before qualifying into the Costs department.

She then worked as an Intensive Care Nurse providing critical care to critically ill patients in Major Trauma Centres in London. She has over 10 years’ experience working for the NHS and private healthcare sector.
