  I spent a large proportion of my time as a trainee gaining experience in the Private Client department but also enjoyed time in the firm’s Family Law Team and Property department. Whilst a member of the Family Law Team I assisted colleagues with family law actions in both the Court of Session and Sheriff Courts, gaining experience in cases involving financial provision on divorce, child law and some aspects of criminal law.
