About Úna
Úna Campbell is a trainee solicitor at Kingsley Napley and is currently sitting in the Public Law team. She works on a broad range of public law matters, including judicial reviews, inquests and public inquiries.
Prior to commencing her training contract, Úna spent four years working in the firm’s Real Estate and Criminal Litigation teams as part of her solicitor apprenticeship. She has since undertaken seats in Real Estate & Construction, Dispute Resolution, and Public Law.
Throughout her time at Kingsley Napley, Úna has worked on a wide variety of contentious and non-contentious matters. She has assisted clients across a broad range of civil and criminal disputes, acting for both claimants and defendants, as well as private individuals, corporate bodies and public authorities. She also has a particular interest in non-contentious real estate and construction matters, with work spanning residential and commercial acquisitions and disposals, development projects, asset management, landlord and tenant matters, real estate disputes, and construction, engineering and infrastructure projects.
Alongside her work at Kingsley Napley, Úna studied at The University of Law, London, graduating with First Class Honours. She is due to qualify as a solicitor in 2027.
Úna was the first solicitor apprentice at KN, and the inaugural winner of The Legal Apprentice in 2019, a competition run by Kingsley Napley in association with The Times in which 902 teams from 308 colleges across the UK competed against each other through a series of heats testing students’ drafting, negotiation and interpersonal skills.
She is actively involved in the firm’s LGBTQ+, Charities, Social Mobility and Environment committees, and is a long-term volunteer with AMICUS.
Úna sits on the committee of the London Irish Lawyer’s Association (“LILA”), where she has helped to develop one of its social mobility initiatives, the LILA Trailblazers’ Programme, which supports working-class students across Ireland with an interest in law.
