We're in the due diligence phase of a deal that we've been working on, so I'm preparing the Legal Due Diligence Report.

I join to head to the client meeting rooms to attend my first Extraordinary General Meeting to pass a capital raising capacity resolution. We get to speak to the board and senior executives of the company and watch the voting. Wonderfully, it passes.

We get all kinds of opportunities to be involved with pro bono initiatives and social groups within the firm.

Tasks like this are time consuming, but rewarding.  I even get a “great work” email from the Senior Associate I am helping.

The opportunity to do pro bono work and help vulnerable members of the community is a really rewarding part of my role at Ashurst, so I always make sure to put my hand up to help out when I have the capacity.
