Nida studied Political Economy at King’s College London, completing part of her degree at the University of California, Berkeley. She subsequently converted to law and was called to the Bar as a Marchant Scholar of Lincoln’s Inn.

Since joining Chambers, Nida is keenly developing her financial remedy practice, and appears in cases involving a multitude of assets, as well as in applications to vary or enforce existing orders. In private law children matters, Nida routinely appears at all stages of proceedings for child arrangements, specific issue and prohibited steps orders – including cases involving serious allegations of domestic violence, parental alienation and child abuse. Nida is accustomed to handling parallel or standalone injunctive proceedings brought pursuant to the Family Law Act 1996, having previously advised on such applications at the NCDV. Her various experience of working with, and supporting extremely vulnerable individuals, means she takes an empathetic and focused approach – gaining their trust, sensitively advising on delicate matters and robustly defending their interests.

Prior to joining Chambers, Nida was instructed as a County Court Advocate in over 300 hearings concerning housing, personal injury, insolvency and commercial matters. She also represented parties in employment and social security proceedings as a volunteer for the Free Representation Unit (FRU).

Building on this, Nida continues to accept instructions in property matters including all manner of possession proceedings, as well as matters involving commercial debt recovery; injunctive relief; personal insolvency; winding-up; consumer credit and other contractual disputes. Nida also advises and appears in personal injury matters including road traffic accidents, tripping and slipping cases, and other public liability claims.

Nida receives regular praise from professional clients and judges for her meticulous preparation, professionalism and advocacy. She also recognises the benefits of early negotiation in appropriate cases and advises pragmatically.
