Next in the spotlight is one of our trainee solicitors, Adam Khattak. Adam has a strong passion for all things music. He loves nothing more than playing his guitar and attending gigs up and down the country.

Currently a first-year trainee solicitor, Adam has been mentored by Ed Kilner, an intellectual property, commercial & technology solicitor. Adam's working alongside our commercial team and is excited to develop and grow his knowledge of the law before his next training year starts and he moves to the intellectual property team.

What advice would you give your younger self?

Just keep going, keep doing what you're doing. There's no right way of doing things in life.

Work from home or the office?

I have really been enjoying working in the office these past few months. I would say the office with the added luxury of working from home on occasions.
