Same hours, 3 cheques | Solicitor struck off for working three jobs from home

A solicitor has been struck off the roll after it was found she was working for three separate law firms at the same time while misleading each of them about her employment status and submitting overlapping timesheets to claim payment for the same hours.

Belinda Owusuah Sarkodie admitted to the roll in July 2020, was removed from the profession after the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (SDT) found she had acted dishonestly and in breach of multiple core professional principles over a period between June and July 2021.
