“Excellent for her intelligence and skills”
Chambers & Partners
Miranda has represented and advised many clients who have challenged the imposition of targeted sanctions in a range of fora including the General Court and the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in Luxembourg and before the United Nations Office of the Ombudsperson in New York, as well as through less formal engagement with relevant agencies. She is currently acting for individuals subject to EU sanctions imposed in the wake of the Arab Spring, including representing them before the Court of Justice of the European Union in applications to annul these sanctions.
Miranda speaks fluent French.
Miranda is a member of Chatham House and the British Institute of International and Comparative Law.
Miranda also advised Mr Kadi on his second successful annulment application which culminated in an appeal to the Court of Justice of the EU against the EU restrictive measures imposed upon him. The ECJ gave judgment wholly in favour of Mr Kadi in July 2013, confirming the General Court’s annulment of the EU restrictive measures imposed upon him. The Kadi case has generated widespread comment about the relationship between International and European Law, and is considered to be the landmark decision of the European Courts in the law relating to sanctions.
