What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role that values and nurtures my legal education and admin experience, supports my career development, and lets me deliver results with a positive attitude—while learning from experienced colleagues to serve people’s needs.

I’m a legal support and administrative professional currently working as a Legal Support Assistant at Thompsons Solicitors, where I transcribe solicitors’ recordings into Attendance Notes and use BigHand to complete solicitors’ and secretaries’ tasks. I also support case and document workflows by requesting hospital and police records, reconciling disbursements, and handling telephone notes with care and confidentiality.

Across my roles—including Admin Assistant, Legal Intern, and Personal Assistant/Receptionist—I’ve built a consistent foundation in legal research, legal writing and drafting, appointment scheduling, data input, and front-desk client support. I’m also pursuing an LLM SQE 1 with modules in Employment Law and Family Law, and I volunteer with Support Through Court to apply what I learn to civil and family matters.
