Emily is a family paralegal who works closely with Nicki and Emma to provide support across a full range of family law matters. Her duties include liaising with clients, supporting Nicki and Emma in meetings and at court.
Emily has an undergraduate degree in Politics from The University of Surrey and a Masters degree in Law from The University of Law, which she passed with distinction. Emily will shortly be commencing the rigorous SQE route to qualification as a solicitor.
Prior to joining NE Family Law, Emily worked as a paralegal for a niche family and commercial practice and has gained experience in a number of charities, most notably Refuge where she worked as an Independent Gender Violence Advocate.
In her spare time Emily enjoys being as active as possible and her passions include yoga, pilates and tennis.
While I was completing my undergraduate degree in Politics I undertook a professional placement year where I worked as a paralegal in a niche family and commercial practice. This experience allowed me to understand the role of a solicitor and the service that they provide to their clients. This inspired me to want to pursue this as a career and undertake an LLM.
I support Emma and Nicki in a number of ways. I will often assist them with drafting correspondence, meeting with clients and preparing for court hearings. My role is multifaceted meaning I will often be completing a wide range of work for Emma and Nicki and no two days are the same.
The thing I enjoy most about my role is meeting and supporting clients through their legal journey. At NE Family Law there is a focus on our work being client-centered and as such developing good relationships with clients is a priority and something I enjoy.
Outside of work I enjoy being as active as possible and my passions include yoga, pilates and tennis.
My biggest fear is definitely flying! Thankfully the majority of our work is in the UK and as such this is not something I have to encounter often.
