About Mikal

I entered the legal profession as a mature student with family commitments. I understand first-hand how demanding legal study can be and how important clear guidance and structure are in mastering the subject.

I completed my training contract at Girlings Solicitors in Canterbury. I spent almost fourteen years working at Kent County Council, ten as a senior solicitor. Before retiring last year, I regularly acted as advocate for the local authority in the Family Court and the Royal Courts of Justice in complex public law and child protection proceedings. This professional experience informs the practical perspective I bring to my work with students, particularly in helping them understand how legal principles should be analysed, argued and applied in written work.

For many years I worked as a pro bono legal adviser at the Kent Law Clinic, advising members of the public on landlord and tenant matters.

I hold an LLB (2:1) and a Master’s degree in Medical Law and Ethics with distinction. I have mentored and guided law students for more than twenty years, supporting them as they develop the ability to analyse legal problems carefully, structure arguments effectively and write with clarity and authority.

I enjoy seeing students move from uncertainty to confidence as their legal reasoning strengthens and their confidence grows. It is always a pleasure to see former students establish careers in the legal profession, and to stay in touch with them over the years.

Law is a highly competitive field and good guidance can make a real difference to a student’s progress.

My lessons are designed for law students who want clearer thinking, stronger legal writing and stronger academic results.

Each session is tailored to the individual student. I begin by identifying the student’s current level, where they want to be academically or professionally, and the specific areas that need strengthening. From there we work methodically to develop the skills required to reach that standard.

As examples, lessons might focus on:

* structuring essays and problem answers clearly
* developing precise legal analysis and persuasive argument
* improving clarity, precision and discipline in legal writing
* planning and structuring dissertations or extended essays
* preparing legal CVs, applications and personal statements
* discussing routes into legal work experience such as mini-pupillage, marshalling and shadowing opportunities

My approach is calm, patient and structured. Many law students feel overwhelmed by the volume and complexity of the subject, and I am particularly effective at helping students who feel anxious or unsure regain confidence and clarity in their thinking and writing. I create a supportive and steady learning environment where students feel able to ask questions, work through difficult concepts and rebuild confidence in their academic ability. My earlier training in counselling is valuable in helping me listen carefully and support students who feel overwhelmed by the demands of legal study.

The aim of each session is practical progress. Students leave with clearer direction, stronger written work and a deeper understanding of how to approach legal study. My focus is not simply on correcting work, but on helping students learn how to think and write like a lawyer so they can continue to improve independently.
