Supervised by criminal Barrister Peter Krisenthal, I undertook high-quality legal research, complex legal analysis and provided general legal assistance for several high-profile matters set for trial in 2020. I engaged in complex problem solving through my independent production of two cross-examination assessments. I developed my strong attention to detail through the construction of a medical chronology, a dangerous driving chronology and a CCTV breakdown. A key achievement was having a piece of my work Marked For Identification during the trial.
