Graduation Notes

My cousin Helen James has recently qualified as one of only a few Family Law Advocates in the UK is the first Fellow of ILEX (Institute of Legal executives) to qualify within Somerset under the new assessment procedure.

From her company’s (Dyne Drewett) press release: "I am overjoyed to have gained this qualification. The course was extremely challenging but well worth the effort. It means that I can now represent individuals in the Family Proceedings Court or in open court. Being able to offer a complete service will I know be appreciated by clients, particularly during extremely difficult and stressful times.”

ILEX President, Lesley Graham said: “My heartiest congratulations to Helen, one of the very first Legal Executive Advocates in the country to complete our new and demanding Family Law advocacy course. I am delighted she will now able to apply her skills in court on behalf of her clients.”

Wow! Well done.

Congratulations

Congratulations to cousin Helen James, who has just become one of the few Legal Executive Advocates in England and Wales specialising in family law.

In an interview for this blog Helen said “This qualification has long been a career goal and I would like to thank everyone that has helped me to achieve this.” Ok, that was nicked off Dyne Drewett’s website; Helen is based in their Shepton Mallett office.

Well done, H.
