What I do

I qualified as a solicitor in October 2024 and joined the Commercial Property department at Smith Partnership. Based at our Derby office, I deal with a range of property matters in various commercial sectors. 

I joined Smith Partnership in January 2019, beginning my career in the Residential Property department. In September 2021, I moved over to Commercial Property as a Paralegal. During my time as a Paralegal, I assisted on a varied caseload of residential and commercial property matters and quickly realised my passion for property.  

Embarking on my Training Contract in November 2022, I undertook my second training seat in Commercial Property, working closely with fee earners in the department and quickly establishing a cohesive working relationship. 

My Training Contract concluded with an extended seat in Dispute Resolution, where I assisted in several property disputes including; dilapidations, easement and boundary disputes, and lease renewals.  

My team would say I am friendly, approachable, and super organised. 

I am passionate about all types of music, particularly Rock and I enjoy going to watch my favourite bands perform. I am also a keen traveller and love exploring new cultures.

I used Bally and Beth at Smith Partnership to deal with a former client of mine who was trying to false sue me for a job I had done. Their tremendous work paid off dividends and I would highly recommend them both for their work on my behalf from start to finish. Very happy.

I had several questions regarding deed restrictions and a potential course of action. They were very professional and efficient with reasonable cost.
