Tanmeet Sachdeva

As a highly driven law student with a strong academic foundation and diverse hands-on experience, I bring a versatile skill set and passion for legal problem-solving to every challenge. Throughout my internships and volunteer roles, I have developed a solid understanding of both commercial and criminal law, drafting legal documents, conducting research, and advising clients on complex legal matters. My experience shadowing solicitors, working in fast-paced environments, and participating in legal simulations has honed my communication, analytical, and critical thinking skills.

While I am still early in my legal career, my exposure to contract law, criminal litigation, and civil procedures, combined with practical experience in client management, makes me well-suited for positions that require strong research, drafting, and case analysis abilities. I am eager to leverage my background in commercial law, client relations, and legal documentation to contribute effectively in dynamic legal or business environments. My adaptability, attention to detail, and commitment to continuous learning will enable me to thrive in roles that challenge my legal expertise and problem-solving capabilities.

• I have a keen interest in staying updated on the commercial world through podcasts like BBC Wake Up to Money, which I enjoy listening to while at the gym. This combination helps me balance both mental and physical well-being. As a sports enthusiast, I actively engage in cricket, which challenges me to develop resilience and teamwork. Additionally, I am passionate about volunteering and giving back to the community. I have worked with charities such as IARS, writing blogs to support young people, which has deepened my appreciation for youth development and mental health resources. My curiosity about the law extends into my free time, where I often participate in legal simulations and workshops to further my understanding of various legal fields.
