In a recent video, Nicole shared her inspiring journey through the graduate scheme at Express Solicitors, which she joined in March 2023. Reflecting on her transition from a Residential Remortgaging Case Manager to a role at Express Solicitors, Nicole highlighted the significant skills she gained, including drafting legal documents, understanding case law, and preparing witness statements. These skills represented a major leap from her previous responsibilities and showcased the firm’s commitment to professional development.
Nicole credited her supervisor, Collette McCann, for being a fantastic mentor. Collette’s guidance helped Nicole refine her skills, particularly in drafting, and gave her the confidence to excel. “The support and investment from Collette and the firm in developing trainees is unmatched,” Nicole shared.
One of the most memorable moments for Nicole was receiving her training contract. “It felt like winning the golden ticket,” she said, describing the pride and excitement of taking the next step toward becoming a qualified solicitor.
Nicole’s day-to-day work under Collette’s supervision involves handling polytrauma, complex, and high-value personal injury cases. Each day brings new challenges, requiring both adaptability and a proactive approach.
Nicole’s enthusiasm for her role is contagious. In the video, she praised the supportive culture at Express Solicitors, emphasising the firm’s dedication to meeting training needs and fostering personal growth. “If you’re someone who wants to learn and succeed, this is the place for you,” she said.
