About In-house potter

Hi, I’m Emma. First generation senior lawyer, lecturer and legal industry disruptor. Having a working class background I faced hurdle after hurdle throughout qualification and beyond. The information available is outdated, I discovered this the hard way, but I’m making sure that you don’t have to. If I can do it, you can. I’m here to stop the in-house gatekeeping.
