HOMEAmanda El-Guerissy - Trainee Solicitor
Amanda joined Creighton & Partners as a Legal Assistant in April 2011. She graduated from the University of Reading with a law degree in 2002, and completed her LPC at the College of Law, Bloomsbury, in 2003. After taking a year out to work, she returned to read for her Masters in Law (LLM) at the University of London (studying at Queen Mary and Kings College) and graduated in 2006.
Before joining the firm, Amanda worked for 5.5 years as a legal assistant in an outer London Borough Local Authority. She worked extensively in in family and child care law, and also gained experience in the areas of education law, community care, and general litigation during her time there.
Amanda commenced her training contract with the firm in September 2011 to qualify as a solicitor, and hopes to obtain Children Panel membership in the future.
Amanda enjoys spending time with her family and friends, travelling, experiencing new cultures and cuisines, and experimenting in the kitchen to try to replicate recipes at home- much to the delight (and sometimes trepidation!) of her husband.
