Shahel Akram

I’m an experienced legal professional with “over six years’ experience in litigation, claims handling, and legal support.” I bring confidence in “fast-paced legal environments,” with a focus on clear drafting, dependable case management, and excellent client service.

In my roles at DAC Beachcroft and DWF, I’ve managed “varied” and “diverse” caseloads, from inception to resolution, including “EL (Employer’s Liability) and PL (Public Liability)” matters across Small Track to Intermediate Track, as well as Fast Track and Multi-Track cases. I handle settlement negotiations, liaise with clients and third parties, and provide timely case updates.

I’m known for accuracy and follow-through—“draft acknowledgments of service, defences and witness statements,” prepare Directions Questionnaires, and support litigated files end-to-end. I also contribute beyond the casework through pro bono advocacy, and I genuinely value “dedication & enthusiasm,” time management, and problem solving.
