Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I am a Legal Solicitor Apprentice in the Employment team, supporting fee‑earners on a wide range of contentious and non‑contentious employment matters. My role involves managing tasks independently where appropriate, whilst escalating issues and seeking supervision as needed. I work closely with partners, associates, solicitors, paralegals and support staff to ensure matters are progressed efficiently and to a high standard.
