  • About Me

In June 2021, I joined Watson Woodhouse Solicitors, following the completion of my A Levels. At first, I worked as an admin assistant within the Civil Litigation Department before securing a Level 7 Solicitor Degree Apprenticeship with the firm in September 2021.

Initially, as an apprentice, I worked within the Civil Litigation Department where I worked alongside senior solicitors on a variety of cases including historic abuse, personal injury claims, and action against public authorities. Eventually, I developed my own client base and ran my own cases under the supervision of senior solicitors.

Since June 2023, I have been based in the Prison Law Department and I am an accredited Legal Aid Category Supervisor. Through my role, I provide clients with guidance and representation during the course of parole hearings, appealing recalls, prison adjudications, re-categorisation and applying for early release on Home Detention Curfew.

My work allows me to ensure prisoners are treated fairly and that their fundamental human rights are upheld whilst serving custodial sentences.

Also, I am an Accredited Police Station Representative, where I advise and assist clients during their police station interviews.
