I am a paralegal at A&L Goodbody and will begin my training contract in September 2023. After a successful summer of internships at Irish commercial firms, I went on secondment at Tesco\u2019s Group Head Office and worked alongside their Legal Counsel and Head of Legal. Working in- house provided me with a wide scope of different work. Following this, during my final year of my LLB at Queen\u2019s University Belfast, I secured a paralegal role at A&L Goodbody.<\/p>\n
I was incredibly lucky to participate in the first Aspiring Solicitors’ Mentoring Scheme in Northern Ireland. Coming from a working-class background, working in a professional environment, never mind the legal sphere, was completely alien. The mentoring provided by AS helped me develop essential skills for my training contract applications.<\/p>\n
Feel free to contact me using this platform. I am more than happy to have a chat or answer any questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":25372,"template":"","acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
