Meet Rachel! She is almost a newly qualified solicitor and just a wonderful person! <\/p>

\"\"<\/div>\n

On her Instagram<\/a>, Rachel shows glimpses of her personal life and treats her audience to some insights into a life of a trainee solicitor!<\/p>\n

She specializes in family law, runs a social club @younglegalladies<\/a>, and is an active member of the \u201clawinsta\u201d world.<\/p>\n

Make sure to give her a follow! And congratulate her on finishing her TC!<\/p>\n

Why did you start LegallyFierceFeminist?<\/strong><\/p>\n

So my blog hasn\u2019t always been LFF. I think I\u2019ve had my blog for 7 years now. I originally changed the name to the fierce feminist and then I started in law and it just seemed to fit well. I found that people were using \u2018feminist\u2019 as an insult towards me so I decided to take the word and turn it into something positive that I could use for my blog. There is a long blog post on how this blog name even came around for me.<\/p>\n

Not many trainees switch firms during their TCs, why did you switch?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I wanted to work in family law and unfortunately, the firm couldn\u2019t provide me with that so the firm I\u2019m at now was well suited to the area of law I wanted to go into.<\/p>\n

Did being a feminist guide you to which area of law you want to practice in?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I suppose so. I\u2019ve always wanted to be someone who helped other people and that kind of feeds into my feminist beliefs. That women should have equal opportunities around the world.<\/p>\n

What is feminism in law to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think I answered the question above haha! It\u2019s about fair opportunities for women in the law and from the law.<\/p>\n

How did you try to stand out as a non-law grad?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I had done lots of volunteering in my uni days and even after, so I used a lot of that to show the skills I have such as communication skills, team worker, organised\u2026 the usual. I also volunteered at citizens advice which I wholly recommend for anyone who wants to partake in that. You learn how to use a case management system and touch upon bits of the law every now and then that you might not have even used before.<\/p>\n

Your career is on a good path, what are you looking forward to in life now?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Qualification! Isn\u2019t that what every aspiring lawyer looks forward to? The day their name is up there. It\u2019s the thing I first dreamt of when I was 16 and here I am achieving it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
