We asked Rebecca a few questions:

Why did you choose to work at Gilbert Stephens Solicitors?

I was keen to work for a Devon based, forward thinking, firm.

 Are there aspects of your work that are particularly satisfying or challenging?

I love dealing with unregistered land, and although it can be tricky, find it rather like dealing with a large jigsaw puzzle.

Do you have any ambitions, professional or personal, that you would like to pursue in the future?

I would love to run a marathon, just once!

What advice would you give to someone considering a career in law?

The advice that I was given was to try to remember that it is a profession as well as a business.

What are you passionate about outside of work?

I love running…albeit slowly!
