The 44-year-old celebrity started her career when she was admitted to the bark in New York and 2002 and gained similar qualifications in England, allowing her to work in the U.K. and U.S.

Like others, she started small as a clerk at the International Court of Justice until she made it big at the International Criminal Court. Come 2010, she returned to Britain to work as a barrister.

She was appointed to a number of United Nations commissions and held high-profile cases. In addition, she was also an accomplished professor, a faculty member at Columbia’s Law School’s Human Rights Institute between 2015 and 2016.

Amal Clooney and Her Career’s Controversies

Amid the success, Amal Clooney’s career has also been marred by several controversies. After defending Julian Assange, she also handled the case of Abdullah al Senussi.

The spy chief of Muammar Qaddafi was charged with crimes against humanity.

“A scary precedent has been set. The ICC made its decision despite the fact that Libya did not allow us a single visit to Senussi,” she told The Observer. “The whole point of the ICC is to be there when national systems can’t do the job. Instead, it is giving a flawed, dangerous process the stamp of approval.”

Meanwhile, aside from her successful career, Amal Clooney is also known for being the wife of George Clooney. So after the two announced their engagement, Josephine Tovey wrote in The Age the actor should be thanking the stars for having someone like her as his wife, knowing he just “snagged one of Britain’s most eligible bachelorettes.”

“If our world was one that valued achievements in education, politics and human rights as much as it did celebrity, headlines around the world would have this week screamed: ‘Sorry boys—Amal is taken,’” she said.
