Biography
I am a Trainee Solicitor, undertaking my first seat in the Court of Protection department in the Sheffield Office. I previously worked as a Paralegal in the Public Law and Human Rights department, with extensive experience in issues relating to mental capacity and the Court of Protection.
What do you like about working at Irwin Mitchell?
The firm provides such a supportive and inclusive working environment. Its fulfilling being able to work with likeminded and dedicated people who wish to provide a high-level service and achieve the best outcome for our clients. The team are always willing to share their knowledge and provide support in whatever way they can.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your role?
Having the capability to be the voice of individuals who are unable to advocate their views for themselves, developing strong, trusting relationships with clients and making a positive difference to clients' lives through use of the law.
What inspired you to get into law?
I visited Doncaster Magistrates Court on a school field trip aged 15. I was inspired by the court process and the professionals involved and strived to work in law from then onwards.
What do you do away from the office?
I love to keep active, regularly attending the gym, walking in the Peak District and having recently taken up running. I am an avid traveller, and I am keen to see as much of the world as possible. I also enjoy regularly spending time with my family and my friends.
