Summary
I am an LLM LPC student with BPP University awaiting final results and a Law LLB (Hons) graduate from Keele University where I also participated in a voluntary study abroad scheme in Lille, France. My experiences with left-sided hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy since birth have equipped me with resilience and perseverance and I believe it has also added to my drive and determination to succeed in a career in the law. I have gained an insight into family law through my recent experience in a Paralegal role and I am sure that this is the area of law in which I want to grow my career. I am currently looking for a role predominantly within family law where I can utilise my skills and work my way to becoming a qualified solicitor.
