Tasmin Sarai

I am a Trainee Solicitor in my third seat with the Commercial Litigation department.

I assist in a variety of disputes, including contract disputes, debt recovery, contentious probate and TOLATA matters. I am involved with drafting documents, researching and engaging with clients and third parties. I assist multiple fee earners in the department and support them through the progression of their matters.

My second seat was in the Family department, where I assisted in a range of matters, including children, financial arrangements and divorce. As part of my role, I regularly communicated with clients and third parties, as well as attending client meetings and court hearings. I worked closely with a range of solicitors across the department, both in St Albans and Harpenden.

My first seat was in the Commercial Property department. I gained experience across a variety of matters, including landlord and tenant transactions, refinancing matters and sales on both large scale and small-scale transactions. I assisted in drafting legal documents and helping progress transactions from instruction through to completion.

Prior to commencing the training contract, I worked as a Paralegal in the Family department in our Harpenden office. In this role, I supported and assisted solicitors through the day-to-day management of their matters.

I am approachable, helpful and proactive, and I bring these qualities to my work to ensure clients feel supported throughout their matter.
