Legal
Services provided
I would classify myself as a qualified and highly motivated individual. I am passionate about the legal fraternity and eager to learn about new and different aspects of the law. I believe that keeping up-to-date with new and relevant legislation and case law, together with having adequate research capabilities is the key to ensuring clients receive the best service and advice.
I believe myself to be adept at taking on challenging situations and getting to the crux of a legal quandary. My goal is to assist clients to the best of my ability and provide the highest quality service that I can to my employers and clients.
I am a quick learner of new information, systems, products and processes. Further, I am well organized, punctual and willing to accept responsibility for any and all of my actions. Looking to build on existing skills and knowledge, and able to effectively function individually and in a team.
I am a hard worker who does not mind working long hours in order to ensure that the work is done right. I grow with my profession, handle responsibility and build positive relationships with work colleagues at all levels. I have a proven track record of responsibility, integrity and commitment to company objectives.
Finally, I have work experience in primarily banking and commercial law, and I am adept at civil litigation, together with its processes in the High Court (Primarily) and Magistrates’ Court.
Experience
I have been working in the commercial litigation department where I have gained experience in various areas of the law, primarily banking law and general commercial litigation.
I have gathered specific knowledge regarding bank processes, work ethics and have specifically worked with departments such as: commercial litigation, credit card, fiduciary, home loans, stock broking, to name a few and have attended to the drafting, researching and necessary court appearances.
Although my PQE experience is just over one year, I contend that my exposer to various areas within the litigation space and within the banking environment itself which, in my opinion, have provided me with the necessary experience needed for this role, should allow me the opportunity to place my hat into the ring for this position. I am confident that I would be an ideal fit for this position given my exposer in the field of commercial litigation, particularly in the field of banking and finance.
My legal experience extends to:
- Legal research in respect of various aspects of the law contained in case law, legislation, statutes, accredited legal articles and opinions, to mention a few.
- General legal practitioners practice such as:
