Our guest, Sophie Walker, is an experienced human rights practitioner, having previously spent five years as a US Attorney representing death row prisoners, and three years as a solicitor, before being called to the Bar in 2016.
She completed a two-year legal fellowship at the not-for-profit Equal Justice Initiative of Alabama, representing death row prisoners in both state and federal courts. She also challenged the incarceration of terminally ill prisoners and was part of the team that successfully challenged sentencing of children to whole-life sentences at the US Supreme Court, Graham v Florida, 560 U.S.48.
As you can see, Sophie has quite the history in access to justice. In Just Transcription, she’s bringing her expertise to improving access to legal transcripts and reducing the cost and nightmare involved in obtaining transcripts for lawyers and their clients.
Check out this interview with a passionate founder intent on improving access to legal records necessary for appeals and more.
