More about Shital
I first became interested in criminal defence work after completing work experience at a local law firm during College and decided to pursue a career in law thereafter.
I work conscientiously on behalf of clients and prepare meticulously to ensure a great quality of service and result in the Court room.
I work at Cartwright King as I am enthusiastic about criminal defence work and at Cartwright King I have the opportunity to deal with a wide range of cases. I also like Cartwright King because I feel that it is a progressive and dynamic work place with a friendly culture. The reputation of Cartwright King is excellent and I feel a sense of pride working for them.
My role excites me because every day is different and I can also see cases progress from the police station stage through to the conclusion of proceedings.
In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, travelling and yoga.
