Pakeeza now deals with all areas of law concerning children and also spends time abroad working with communities in Cambodia. Her commitment to Cambodia and its children stems from her time there in 2013 and 2014 when she worked with child related non-government organisations and charities before she started her pupillage with Magdalen Chambers.
