Bryher is a recent LLB Law Graduate from the University of Bristol. She is starting her at F-LEX with the ambition to secure a training contract in the future.

The F-LEX Book Club
This month’s recommendation comes from our very own CEO Mary Bonsor. This November she is recommending that you read “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen R. Covey.
It is a book that Mary found extremely useful when starting F-LEX and she believes the lessons she learnt from the book could be applicable to many of you.
In this work Covey presents a 7 step approach to overcoming personal and professional issues.
