Legally Qualified Podcast

Legally Qualified Podcast is back from hiatus! 

Not only am I now qualified, I am now a Senior Lawyer! That's right, me too I am still trying to make sense of it all. Just know that hard work and persistence is trully the key to achieving your goals. At the beginning of 2020 I was no longer applying for pupillage, I was fed up of being rejected and began to question if I am even meant to be a Barrister. I decided to make one application just because. In  2022 I am now a Senior Lawyer. #WontHeDoIt
