Aperçu — adapté à Reed
Dear Hiring Manager,
Having worked within a residential conveyancing team handling exchange and completion procedures and supporting AML compliance checks, I was immediately drawn to the Conveyancing Assistant/Legal Secretary/Paralegal opportunity at Reed in Brentwood. My hands-on experience with the full conveyancing process — from initial instruction through to post-completion Land Registry applications — means I can contribute from day one without a lengthy settling-in period.
My background in conveyancing support includes managing active caseloads alongside fee earners during peak periods, drafting client correspondence, preparing title reports, and ensuring all documentation met regulatory deadlines. I am comfortable working at pace while maintaining accuracy across a high volume of files.
