The Respondent was a solicitor admitted to the Roll of Solicitors on 30 July 2020. An SRA investigation commenced following concerns that the Respondent was working for multiple firms simultaneously and that she had submitted timesheets claiming payment for the same hours on the same dates from both firms at which she was contracted as a locum, whilst also holding a substantive role at a third firm.
The SRA investigation identified that there was a crossover period from 29 June 2021 to 16 July 2021 when the Respondent was simultaneously undertaking work for three firms.

Allegations against the Respondent included that she had submitted misleading timesheets requesting payment and that she had misled her substantive employer that she was solely working for them whilst also undertaking locum roles elsewhere.

All allegations, including dishonesty, were found proved and the Tribunal ordered that the Respondent be Struck off the roll of solicitors.
