What are your career highlights so far?
"Securing my Training Contract after spending 6 years at University and working as a Legal Assistant for 2 years thereafter. It’s definitely a relief knowing that all the hard work has not gone to waste."
What is one legal myth that you’d love to dispel?
"That if you pass away without having made a Will, your spouse will automatically inherit your whole estate."
What made you want to work in your sector?
"My grandfather was a prison officer, which made me want to pursue a career in Criminal Law. During my time as a Legal Assistant, I spent over two years in the Private Wealth & Succession department. I loved the variety of work involved, which made me decide to qualify into that area."
