More about Sally

Sally joined the PM Law Group as an EL/PL Team Manager in the personal injury department following an 18 month career break following the birth of her twin boys. Having been a salaried partner in her previous firm, Sally was looking for a role within a business where she could use her legal knowledge but also maintain a viable work/life balance.

Sally enjoys the variety that comes with her role and feels fortunate to work with such a talented, friendly and knowledgeable team who always keep her on her toes. Sally strives to be respectful, courteous and will always be there to listen and provide support to her team when they need it. The most important part of Sally’s role is ensuring effective communication and management of change while also giving relevant support and guidance in relation to risk management and regulatory compliance.

Outside of work, Sally loves watching football, both on TV and in the stands at Bramall Lane. She also can be found on the sidelines cheering on her children in their football teams and is a keen supporter of the England cricket team. Sally enjoys cooking, eating out and loves reading historical fiction whenever she can find a peaceful corner or a lounger in the sun.
