Dinya joined Bolt Burdon Kemp in November 2024 and works alongside Abbie Hickson as a Solicitor in the Abuse Team.
Drawing on a deep understanding of legal processes and passion for justice, Dinya is passionate about empowering survivors of domestic abuse, helping them to navigate the legal system and secure the compensation they deserve.
Prior to joining BBK, Dinya spent five years at a London-based law firm, advocating for clients in complex legal matters. After many years of representing defendants in personal injury cases, Dinya transitioned to focus on supporting victims of domestic abuse. Dinya’s experience on the defendant side has provided her with valuable insight into how compensators manage claims.
Dinya has always shown a keen interest in raising awareness of domestic abuse issues. Her university dissertation offered insight into the issues surrounding the reporting of domestic abuse, particularly in underrepresented communities, and proposed reforms to the way in which these victims are supported. She undertook focus groups with male survivors of domestic abuse to better understand how society can empower them to take action.
Dinya has actively contributed to organisations such as the Kurdish Women’s Organisation in Wales, which provides educational support and guidance to women within the Kurdish community. She is deeply passionate about helping others and has assisted many individuals in overcoming the challenges they face both professionally and personally.
Dinya prides herself in being compassionate and understanding. She strives to create a safe and comfortable space for clients to discuss difficult issues and provides advice in a manner that is approachable and not overwhelming.
