During her career at Freshfields, Falk noted she experienced sexism despite being a partner. In an interview, she said during her time there she would often be the only female attending meetings and her male colleagues in those meetings would demonstrate selective hearing, with a male colleague repeating a point she had made earlier which then would be treated as a good idea.[6]

In 2015 she was appointed as a deputy judge of the Upper Tribunal (Tax and Chancery Chamber) having left Freshfields partnership while still working on a consultancy basis until 2018.[3][1]

On 1 October 2019, she was appointed as a Judicial Commissioner of the Judicial Appointments Commission. She retired from the post on 30 September 2022.[3][8]

Court of Appeal and Privy Council appointment

Her appointment to the Court of Appeal was announced on 2 November 2022.[9] On 14 December 2022 Falk was appointed to the Privy Council, entitling her to the style The Right Honourable for life.[10]
