Amelia Cruise

Solicitor

Get to know me...

I joined Goughs in September 2021 as a Trainee Solicitor, having worked as a property paralegal for three years. I graduated from Swansea University in 2017 with first-class honours in Law, before completing my Legal Practice Course and Masters in Professional Legal Practice with a distinction.

I enjoy working in law because of the personal nature of the work. I pride myself on being a naturally approachable and empathetic person and enjoy working with my clients to achieve the outcome that best suits them.

I was initially drawn to Goughs by their great reputation, range of practice areas, and well-established training programme, which make this a very exciting place to be a trainee.
