At APALegallyFreeLimited, I support firms and individuals with legal matters, conduct research, and review documents when needed.

At SAM Solicitor, I supported will trial preparations, prepared client letters and files, and reviewed orders for case management. I also provided administrative support and assisted solicitors with mental health matters.

Earlier, at Duncan Lewis Solicitors, I supported senior lawyers with litigation and trial preparations, including client interviews, witness lists, and motions. My experience also includes mental health law at THB Solicitors and administrative support at NTU Legal Advice Centre.
