Summary

I consider myself to be a diligent, committed, and aspirational individual. I am qualified to provide competent and precise legal advice in a range of practice areas, including property, business, and immigration law. I have real-world experience working in the legal field, where I have proven to be reliable and have mastered the skill of adhering to schedules and prioritising duties to complete jobs by the deadlines despite a demanding workload. Being structured and carrying out my responsibilities in accordance with the maxim "do it nice or do it twice" help me achieve this.

I work well independently, and I make a great team player. There is always more to learn, but I pick things up quickly, and I become motivated by new challenges since they provide me a chance to use and broaden my skill set.

I had the opportunity to work in different areas of law during my training, which allowed me to choose which area of law I love the best.

In addition, I was able to go to government offices to complete all of our clients' responsibilities and demands and even to submit any required applications on their behalf.
