Emily Blakemore

Solicitor - Associate

SRA ID: 804671

I graduated from the University of Birmingham in 2019 with a first class law degree and achieved a distinction in my Legal Practice Course in 2020. I trained at a Birmingham based firm where I undertook seats in the Litigation, Employment and Immigration, Clinical Negligence and Property and Planning departments. I qualified as a solicitor in 2022 and joined Higgs as a newly qualified solicitor shortly thereafter. My experience in litigation is wide ranging, from advising clients on defamation, contractual and intellectual property issues to assisting on and attending a trial for a health and safety prosecution case. The clients I have worked with have been of various sizes and from different sectors which has given me invaluable experience in how to facilitate and deliver each client’s needs. In my spare time, I love watching football games with my family, reading, going out for food with friends and keeping up with the latest fashion trends.
