What I do

I joined Smith Partnership in January 2024, having graduated in 2022 from the University of Derby with a First Class Honours law degree, and a Masters in Legal Practice in 2023. 

I am a Trainee Solicitor currently undertaking my third seat in Clinical Negligence and Personal Injury. I have previously completed seats in Childcare and Criminal Defence, following prior experience as a Paralegal within the Crime department. 

I’m experienced in supporting clients across a range of sensitive and complex matters, with particular strengths in client care, legal research, and case management.

Supervisor:

Anna McLeod 

I am well organised, hardworking, and willing to take on any task. I take pride in the work that I do and like to support my colleagues wherever I can. 

Outside of work, I enjoy going to the gym, socialising with my friends, and spending time with my family.

It's been a long journey and court case. All for trying to do the right thing and standing up for others involved. Happy with the outcome. And all my legal team, I particularly Adrian, Sophie and David. Well done to all mentioned, I owe you all a good meal and drink. Thanks for all the hard work everyone. Highly recommend.
