Biography:
Consultant cosmetic surgery and clinical negligence solicitor (6 years PQE) - Freelance creative strategist for legal businesses - Founder of Law and Broader - legal careers coaching and mentoring - Public / keynote speaker I spent the first 7.5 years of my career at Irwin Mitchell LLP as a trainee and then qualified solicitor in the International Serious Injury team. I specialised in a wide variety of catastrophic injury cases including brain injury, spinal injury, group actions, fatal cases and ultimately specialising in claims arising out of cosmetic surgery procedures. Notable cases include the Costa Concordia disaster where I led the litigation for a group of 12 Claimants who were bringing their claims though the Italian Courts. I was fortunate enough to win multiple awards including Solicitor of The Year 2019 at the Birmingham Law Society awards and Highly Commended Junior Lawyer of the Year 2018 & 2019 at The Law Society's Excellence Awards. I was recommend in The Legal 500 2020 as a "rising star". In 2017, I founded Law and Broader. The intention was to improve accessibility to the profession by providing support and guidance to aspiring lawyers who were struggling to break through the training contract barrier, as I did, and share some of the things that I had learned from my own challenges and setbacks in the process. It started life as a YouTube channel and quickly spread across instagram, Linkedin Twitter and Tik Tok, as well as regular networking and educational events. 4 years later, the platform has won multiple awards, grown to over 60,000 followers and has helped hundreds of students to secure training contracts and legal work experience across the globe. The platform now extends beyond aspiring lawyers, providing social media and personal brand building consultancy services to individuals and businesses within the legal sector. Alongside the above, I regularly guest lecture and speak at national and global events on topics including legal education, diversity and inclusion, mental health and well-being, innovation and technology and social media marketing.
