Hello All,

I am a new member and I thought I would introduce myself to the forums.  I am a Volunteer Duty Generlist Adviser at the Royal Courts of Justice Citizens Advice.  I started with the Citizens Advice in 2007.

I am 43 years old and hard of hearing.  I am passionate about defending the rights our needy in society and completely disagree with the Welfare Reforms.

I obtained my Law Degree in 2005 and am currently registered as a Fellow with the Institute of Paralegals.  I trainined as a Civil Mediator last year.

Recently I completed the LASA course in Representation at Tribunals in the Social Chamber and have just been given my fist appeal case to start as a volunteer, which is going to be quite a testing experience. 

Looking forward to contributing to the forums in any way I can.

Best Wishes
Mik

Welcome to the labyrinthine world of the baroque, the bizarre, the surreal and the absurd.

We only do passionate on Fridays.  Hence, the occasional civil mediation Monday.
