I was drawn to employment law as it is an evolving and challenging area of law that provides the opportunity to make a positive impact on clients’ lives.

As a trainee, I believe I can gain invaluable experience in the area of employment law while working with the highly specialised and dedicated team at Jones Chase.

Jones Chase is a firm that provides exceptional service to their clients by providing specialist and bespoke advice, whilst at the same time having a supportive and excellent team dynamic.

I enjoy working as part of a like-minded team that is dedicated to ensuring clients achieve the best outcomes. I find great satisfaction in supporting clients through difficult times.
