A driven second-year law student with practical experience across commercial, disputes, immigration and criminal law gained at McKee Campbell Morrison Solicitors and Barlow Rahman Solicitors. I have developed strong skills in legal research, drafting and client-facing work, alongside a high level of attention to detail through roles in both legal and professional settings. Insight days with firms including Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer, Latham & Watkins and Clyde & Co have deepened my understanding of commercial practice and the demands of cross-border work. I am particularly motivated to pursue a career as a commercial solicitor, combining analytical rigour with a strong awareness of clients’ strategic and commercial objectives.
