Career Stories

Eve Clarke.

I started working for Awdry Law in March 2006.  My role was initially working as a temporary Legal Secretary within the Family Law department, however within a couple of months I was a full time member of the team.  During my 17+ years with the firm, I have worked in several different departments but always expressed a wish to return to Family Law. 

In December 2015, I was offered a position back in the Family Law Department working with Cindy.  I grabbed the opportunity with both hands and have never looked back.  I am so grateful that the Partners listened to my request and thought of me when the time arose. 

Working within the Family Law department and especially with Cindy, is fantastic.  The team is small in comparison to others within the firm, but we are all very supportive of each other.  My role is varied and no two days are the same.  I love the client interaction and the knowledge that we are supporting people during a difficult time in their life.  Of course, there are times when cases can be challenging but I work with great people, and I know there is always someone there to listen and assist. 

Awdry Law have always given me fantastic job opportunities and supported any internal transfer I have made.  However, Family Law is where I belong and I will do doubt be here until I retire!
