In this episode I speak to Rachel Segal, a personal injury barrister practicing at St. John's Chambers in Bristol. Having decided at the age of 40 she wanted a career change, Rachel retrained following an already well established career in academia and higher education policy research. Rachel talks through life as a junior personal injury barrister, typical personal injury cases and the necessary skills you need to succeed working in this specialism.
