Chanel Mullings

Paralegal

Wake up with determination. Go to bed with satisfaction.

Chanel joined Holborn Adams as a Junior Paralegal following the successful completion of her LLB Honours degree in Law from the University of Derby. Over the past two years, she has developed into a skilled and trusted member of the team, gaining valuable hands-on experience in the fast-paced world of criminal defence law.

Trained in-house by Holborn Adams, Chanel has gained a strong understanding of how a private law firm operates and how complex cases should be approached from the outset. Chanel has also supported the team on civil matters, further broadening her legal insight.

She has developed a particular interest in early-stage criminal defence work, with experience in pre-charge representations and early intervention strategies designed to prevent criminal charges from being pursued. Chanel handles cases with the utmost discretion and professionalism, often working closely with police to support the investigative process and ensure the best possible outcomes for clients.

Her interests in criminal law, medical law, and ethics continue to inform her approach to client care and legal strategy.

Outside of the office, Chanel enjoys music playing both the piano and flute and has a passion for travel and culture. Her experiences abroad have helped her develop understanding of different cultures and a global perspective that she brings to her work.
