Summary

With three years of experience in casework, I have gained extensive expertise in handling asylum cases and providing comprehensive support to vulnerable clients throughout the legal process. My role has involved working closely with clients to assess their needs, gather evidence, and ensure they understand their rights and entitlements under asylum law. I have developed strong skills in drafting and filing documents, preparing case files, and liaising with legal professionals, including lawyers, to build solid cases for asylum seekers.

In my work, I have supported clients in distressing circumstances, offering sensitive, empathetic, and culturally aware assistance while ensuring that their voices are heard and their legal interests are represented. I have successfully managed multiple cases simultaneously, working efficiently under pressure to meet deadlines and legal requirements.

Through my collaboration with lawyers and other legal professionals, I have gained valuable experience in cross-agency partnership and have contributed to ensuring clients receive appropriate legal representation and advocacy. This has also allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the asylum system, refugee law, and the legal processes surrounding vulnerable migrants.

My ability to communicate clearly and effectively with diverse clients, along with my dedication to client-centred casework, has been a cornerstone of my success in delivering impactful and compassionate support.
