About me

As an assistant lawyer in our Competition & Regulatory team, I assist colleagues in advising local and international clients on various regulatory issues.

According to Art. 40 (3) of the Bar Association Act, lawyers do not provide legal services. Lawyers are assisting the attorneys.

Professional highlights

Experience and professional development. Every experience fosters personal growth, which is crucial for an aspiring lawyer. That’s why I actively participate in events aimed at law students to broaden my knowledge and perspective. During the 2023/2024 academic year, I completed the Sorainen Student Academy program, which provided me with a comprehensive and practical insight into various fields of law.

Open communication and teamwork. I value honest, open, and supportive communication, which is the foundation of any collaboration. I have participated in various legal and moot court competitions, where I have developed my teamwork skills and broadened my perspective. These experiences have shown me that open communication helps overcome challenges, and working together is always easier than going alone.

ThinkTank. Through the ThinkTank programme, I can assist colleagues with various legal matters while also, as an assistant lawyer, gaining exposure to and expanding my knowledge of other areas of law.
