Legal Assistant with a view to find a Training Contract to be a Solicitor in the near future.
I work in the litigation department in the firm that deal mainly with Norwich Union General Insurance. Therefore our cases are 95% are defendant work in road traffic accident cases and on my desk there are cases from basic damages to cars, whiplash, death to people requiring life time care and assistance. So I submit stuff to courts, do letters to client, barristers, court and experts. I also get to see a lot of "restricted" materials from the police and GP records of claimants, I pretty much get to see someone's life story in some cases in front of me.
