  • Attend interviews under caution, inquests, and trials alongside Counsel
  • Conduct legal and regulatory research (including HSE guidelines)
  • Review medical records, post-mortem reports, transcripts and CCTV evidence
  • Coordinate meetings, site visits, and expert appointments

  • ✅ Calm, resilient and professional under pressure
  • ✅ A collaborative team player with a proactive, flexible approach
  • ✅ Sensitive and empathetic in dealing with clients facing difficult circumstances
