Alice Stephenson
Plume Group
Alice’s story is one of survival and resourcefulness. At just 18, she faced the challenges of teenage motherhood and homelessness, yet refused to be defined by her circumstances. Determined and focused, she navigated the complexities of university while juggling her responsibilities as a young mother. Having qualified as a solicitor, Alice had proven that barriers could be broken down thanks to grit and passion, but her story doesn’t end there. She then set out to disrupt the legal industry by founding her own legal services company – Plume. Alice stands against the norms of a male-dominated, elitist legal profession. Taking aim at archaic traditions, outdated perspectives, and an industry rife with discrimination, Alice is outspoken about how authenticity, inclusivity and the humanisation of lawyers are the key to delivering much-needed change within one of the world’s oldest professions.
