Career

Christopher graduated from the University of Kent with a Bachelor of Law degree in 2013. He went on to complete the Legal Practice Course at BPP Law School in 2016, during which he conducted pro bono work, acting as a student adviser for housing, working with a supervising solicitor to draft letters of advice.

After receiving a commendation from BPP, he then transitioned into working as a paralegal in a London firm’s residential property department.

Following this, he worked as a trainee solicitor in various legal disciplines and later qualified as a solicitor specialising in commercial property matters in 2021.
