Chloe Holmes

Trainee Solicitor

I am a Trainee Solicitor in my second seat, which is in the South Essex Dispute Resolution Team. I will be dealing with a variety of litigation matters, including property disputes and debt collection matters, along with other general disputes that may arise. 

One of the most important parts of my role is to ensure that the service I provide is more than just satisfactory for my clients. I want to communicate well with my clients and listen to what they want while providing the best possible advice in some of the most difficult situations.

I chose to study law because I want to be able to help people make a change in their lives and resolve the legal problems that they are facing. I enjoy seeing progression; when clients first come to me, they often feel hopeless, and some are at the lowest they have ever been. For me, to see them with the biggest smiles on their faces once their case is resolved is the most rewarding element of my job.

I have previously volunteered at the Law Clinic at ARU, where I worked with qualified solicitors to provide 30 minutes of advice at no cost. We dealt with family law, employment law, and immigration law cases. 

Prior to commencing my Trainee Solicitor role, I worked within the Commercial Property Team for 12 months as a Paralegal.  

I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life and have been complimented on many occasions for my approachability and communication skills. 

When I’m not working, I like to go to the gym and walk my three dogs over the fields or in the park with my boyfriend. I also love travelling and have a bucket list of all the places I want to visit!
