I have worked since I was 15 years old, having got a small Sunday job as a waitress for a local pub and restaurant - The Ruddy Duck. A year later, I got another job as a part time sales assistant at John Lewis and Partners, which I worked alongside my waitressing job. It was at these jobs where I found my passion for customer service, and, more importantly, helping people.Having always wanted to have a career in law, I joined Will and Probate Services in September 2018 as a Legal Executive Apprentice, studying the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives (CILEx) course and whilst continuing to build experience in the Will and Probate field of the legal services. Here, I developed a niche in the private client field, and this also fuelled my passion for customer service and helping people as this is an area of the law where I feel is quite under-serviced. Two thirds of the adult UK population do not have a valid Will, despite it being one of the most important documents you will draw up in your lifetime. I worked at Will and Probate Services for two years, building up my knowledge base and experience in the field, all whilst continuing my CILEx qualifications.In March 2021, I started a new career venture as a paralegal of Trusts and Probate at Hegarty LLP Solicitors, where I will also be continuing my CILEx education, and expanding my knowledge further, with the aim to become a qualified legal executive by the time I am 25 years old, so I can continue to qualify as a solicitor before I’m 30.
