I worked as a paralegal in the Civil Litigation department, processing claims, completing forms and keeping clients updated with their case. I completed my training contract with NRB Law Firm, covering several areas including Residential and Commercial Conveyancing. I also mentored new members of the firm joining the property department, acting as a go-to person.
I was a solicitor in the property department dealing with a busy workload of residential conveyancing transactions. Since heading up the department in 2003, we have increased repeat business from 23% to 53% through various client retention strategies that I implement (details available). This was partly achieved through an overhaul of the property section on our website (which I designed and project managed), and partly through introducing an online conveyancing portal.
From joining the firm in 2001, the department has grown to handle more than £20 million of transactions each calendar year.
Heading up the Residential Conveyancing department, I oversee a team of 15 paralegals in dealing with sales, purchases, remortgages and plot sales. I am interested in joining a smaller firm where I can use my proven skills and experience to grow the property department as I have in previous positions.
