I graduated from the University of Gloucestershire in 2017 with an LLB Law Degree and began working for a small Gloucester based Law Firm as an Administration Assistant.

After learning how a Law Firm worked in practice, I went on to secure the role as a Conveyancing Assistant in a larger Oxford based Law Firm, as I knew Property was the area I would like to specialise.

Choosing Conveyancing as my specialism was easy, I really enjoy being a part of the moving home journey, it is one of the biggest investments you make during your lifetime and my aim is to take the stress away from the transaction so my clients can enjoy the experience.

After gaining valuable skills such as active case management and building on my communication skills, I knew it was time to look for a job closer to home, which is when I joined Awdry Law in 2019.

I joined as a Legal Assistant in the Conveyancing Department and worked alongside a very experienced Associate Solicitor.  Awdry Law encouraged me to continue to study for my LPC, whilst  teaching me important invaluable skills such as drafting Property Reports and slowly giving me conduct of files.

In September 2021, I was promoted to a Residential Conveyancer and started to take on the responsibility of having my own case load whilst still under the supervision of the Associate Solicitor.

After showing that I could manage my own case load I was offered a Training Contract which commenced in September 2022.

I have therefore been on my training contract journey and having started my seat in litigation, I am learning various skills which can assist me in my role as a qualified solicitor (hopefully in March 2024).

Working at Awdry Law has given me the most amazing opportunity to develop my career and I cannot thank them enough for seeing my potential and providing their continued support in the advancement of my career.

With the open door policy, you are never left to feel out of your depth, you can ask questions whenever required and you are treated with the upmost respect.

If you are thinking of joining Awdry Law, the atmosphere created in every office is very different to an ordinary law firm, it has a really friendly welcoming feel. Awdry Law really want you to succeed and support you in every endeavour you want to undertake, I could not recommend a better place to work.
