I am an LPC and LLM graduate with an LLB (Hons) from the University of Hertfordshire, currently seeking a Trainee Solicitor.
I have developed practical experience supporting cases involving divorce, children matters, and domestic abuse through my work with legal clinics and support organisations. My experience includes legal research, drafting case documents, preparing for court proceedings, and supporting vulnerable clients through complex legal processes.
Alongside my legal background, I currently work at the Department for Work & Pensions where I manage a high-volume caseload, act as a Safeguarding Lead, and support individuals facing complex social and legal challenges. This has strengthened my ability to manage competing priorities, communicate effectively, and deliver client-focused solutions under pressure.
I am particularly interested in developing my career within Family Law, where I can combine my legal training, client care experience, and commitment to supporting vulnerable individuals.
