What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative environment.

I am a detail-oriented law graduate with a strong foundation in legal research and administration, honed through my experience at a national law firm. My proficiency in using LexisNexis and WestLaw has enabled me to conduct thorough legal research, while my ability to draft concise responses has been instrumental in providing effective client support. I have developed key organizational skills through managing legal administrative tasks, including document reviews and preparing e-bundles for litigation.

During my tenure as a Legal Assistant at Slater and Gordon Lawyers, I successfully liaised with medical professionals and clients, ensuring compliance with ICO subject access rules. I have a proven track record of maintaining professional relationships and supporting fee earners in various legal processes. My internship experiences with the Crown Prosecution Service and BrightNetwork have further enriched my understanding of the legal system, allowing me to analyze cases and engage with legal professionals globally.
