We’re delighted to introduce Nicola Rourke, our newest Trainee Solicitor.

Nicola has already been working with us here at Murlands in a Paralegal capacity, but this month marks the beginning of her official in-office training as a Trainee Solicitor. She will attend the Institute of Professional Legal Studies in January.

Nicola has already provided valuable assistance to many of our Solicitors and clients across a wide range of matters and has developed a particular interest in the drafting of wills and the administration of estates.

Nicola is from Downpatrick and attended Assumption Grammar School before going on to study at Liverpool John Moores University. In her spare time, Nicola enjoys playing Gaelic football and netball for her local clubs.

Welcome to the team, Nicola – and best of luck with your training! 👏🏻
