About me

I am an assistant lawyer in the Dispute Resolution & Risk Management team, and I support lawyers in different disputes.

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

Professional highlights

A diverse experience. I have completed a traineeship in four different law firms, providing me with a comprehensive understanding of the legal field from the perspective of multiple law firms. Most importantly, this experience has expanded my worldview and equipped me with versatile knowledge that I can apply daily across various areas.

Creativity. Embracing a creative approach fosters teamwork, enabling us to discover fresh perspectives. I approach challenges with creativity, seeking collaborative solutions that yield effectiveness. I value collective thinking and idea-sharing, recognising their pivotal role in achieving successful outcomes.

Self-development. I actively participate in various events and programs to enhance my knowledge and skills. For example, I have completed the Sorainen Student Academy program and regularly attend student events organised by ELSA and the Estonian Law Students’ Union. Additionally, I have taken part in several legal competitions, including a writing battle aimed at law students and a knowledge test imitating the bar exam. Engaging in diverse activities not only allows me to stay updated with new developments but also provides invaluable opportunities for personal development.
