Career profiles

Nilesh Bathia - Associate
Healthcare, London
I joined Weightmans in 2001 as a Paralegal in the Leicester office. I subsequently obtained a Training Contract in the London office, gaining experience in numerous departments, along with a high profile Public Inquiry and three secondments with clients.  I qualified as a solicitor in September 2005 into Healthcare, assisting a Partner in multi-million pound clinical negligence cases and handling my own caseload.  I am fortunate to have worked in two Weightmans offices, gaining exposure to people all over the practice, at all levels. From my early days as a junior Paralegal, I have been given the opportunity to fulfil my potential, along with a supportive environment. I value the relationship I have with my immediate supervisors, my peers and also the friendly and relaxed culture across the practice.

Tom Murphy - Operations Manager
Comercial Dispute Resolution, Liverpool
I was employed by Weightmans Debt Recovery team in January 2006 as a Paralegal within the Pre-Litigation team.  Working within the Debt Recovery team has allowed me the opportunity to attend a wide range of training courses.  This has accelerated my development having being promoted to Team Leader of the Insolvency Section and more recently to Operations Manager.   During my time at Weightmans, I have met a broad spectrum of people and personalities who I found sociable and approachable as well as committed and professional.  I have extremely enjoyed my time with Weightmans to date, the people, the environment and the quality of service we provide.
