Inês studied Law at University of York and completed the LPC at University of Law. Prior to starting her Training Contract at Dorsey, Inês worked as a paralegal in Intellectual Property for 2.5 years at another US firm in London.  \nA TYPICAL DAY  \nSeat at time of writing: Corporate  \n8:00am: We are in a busy period coming up to signing a transaction. I therefore start my day by quickly checking my emails before I make my way to the office, in case I need to attend to anything urgent that has come in overnight. If nothing requires immediate attention, I quickly flag the tasks that I need to perform once I am in the office.  \n9:30am: I arrive at the office and have a quick catch up with my supervisor, during which we discuss which tasks should be prioritised. I then begin my first task of the day: drafting board minutes, which I aim to circulate to my supervisor before lunch.  \n11:00am: Time for a matcha! I check with my fellow trainees and other colleagues to see who wants to come to the nearest cafe.  \n1:30pm: I circulate the draft board minutes to my supervisor before going for a walk and grabbing lunch with a colleague. Then I return to my desk.  \n2:30pm: I am back at my desk and start my second main task for the day, which is to update a due diligence report following a call with the client yesterday evening. Alongside this, I liaise with the litigation team to confirm the status of litigation searches for the target company so that I can add these to the report.  \n4:00pm: Time for a tea break! I meet with some of the other trainees in the kitchen for a quick break.  \n4:15pm: I head back to my desk after receiving a notification of an email on my work phone with a short last-minute research point. The query related to the sale of shares in an AIM listed company.  \n5:00pm: I finish my research and pull together a short note summarising the position, including the key statutory provisions and case law, before sending it to my supervisor. I stay around for a few minutes in case any follow up questions arise, and check if there’s anything else I can help with today. After my supervisor confirms that there is nothing else to be done this evening, I update my to do list for the next day and log off.  \nTraining contract applications  \nOUR TRAINING CONTRACT  \nDorsey takes on two trainee solicitors every September.
