Emily Gomez
I am a Paralegal in the Court of Protection team, having joined in May 2022. I completed my BA (Hons) Law and Practice from Coventry University in 2018. I am currently studying for CILEX Level 6 at the Coventry University College and have a Level 3 Certificate and Professional Diploma in Law and Practice.
I work within the Court of Protection Health and Welfare team, supporting the solicitors with applications to the Court of Protection such as under s21A and s16 of the Mental Capacity Act 2005.
The team are instructed by The Official Solicitor, advocates and family members and cases can often involve complex issues such as residence, care, sexual relations, contact, medical decisions and deprivations of liberty.
I am passionate about ensuring those who are vulnerable receive the care and support they are entitled to and ensure that their wishes and feelings are heard.
Outside of work I enjoy going to the Gym. I love cooking and listening to music. As well as studying Cilex I am also learning French.
