Devas qualified as a solicitor in 1983, appearing daily in Magistrates
Courts and Crown Court, both to prosecute and defend – she
also appeared in the Court of Appeal. Throughout this period she
dealt with all manner of criminal cases, amassing a vast amount

her Local Law Society, Chairman of the Local Duty Solicitor Scheme
and served on a number of other crime-oriented regional committees.
After defending in a number of serious sex cases, dishonesty and
test purchase drug cases, Nicola Devas converted to the Bar in 2003.
Since being called to the Bar she has continued to deal with a general
range of cases, both prosecuting and defending, including being
instructed as junior to defend a charge of armed robbery and
