What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a paralegal position where I can manage caseloads confidently, draft accurate communications, and continue developing my legal research and evidence review skills in a supportive, deadline-driven environment.

I’m a newly qualified paralegal and LLB (Hons) graduate (First Class) with hands-on experience across legal clinic support, advice services, and caseload work. I bring a research-led approach—listening closely to client issues, carrying out effective legal research, and translating complex processes into clear, accessible updates.

In my current role as a Paralegal at Kinetic Law, I independently manage a large caseload (600+ files), prioritise work under pressure, and meet strict deadlines. I draft detailed correspondence and settlement communications, review medical and service evidence using structured legal frameworks, liaise in a regulated environment, and regularly use Microsoft Office (especially Word and Excel) while submitting accurate claims.
