Meet the trainee

Name:

Sian Williams

Position:

2nd year trainee

Current seat:

Commercial Property - Public Authority and Health Team

Office:

Nottingham

Major casework:

During my time in the department I have worked for a variety of public authority and health sector clients. My work has included advising primary and acute health care trusts on property matters, such as projects for the construction and refurbishment of hospitals and lease arrangements with GP surgeries. I have also been involved in a number of property disposals and site acquisitions for commercial and residential developers.

I will be qualifying into the medical negligence department in September and my time in the property team has been particularly valuable, as it has provided me with an overview of wider health law issues. For example I have gained a detailed understanding of the corporate governance side of some large public sector clients.

Recent achievements:

The team has recently secured ongoing instructions from The Youth Hostel Association (YHA), East Midlands Ambulance Service, Leicester Fire and Rescue Services and Derby Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

Life outside the law:

Away from work I enjoy socialising and cooking for friends. I also enjoy traveling and spent six months traveling around the world before joining the firm.
