Paisley-based law firm MJC LAW has strengthened its growing team with the appointment of Nikkala Kelly as a Trainee Solicitor and the promotion of Courtney Convey to Trainee Legal Assistant.
Nikkala joins MJC LAW after completing her undergraduate degree in Scots and English Law at the University of Strathclyde in 2025, followed by the Diploma in Professional Legal Practice at the University of Glasgow.
She will begin her traineeship within the firm’s conveyancing team, where she will be mentored by Associate Director and Conveyancing Solicitor Karianne Falconer.
Firm owner and Director at MJC LAW, Matthew Coffield, said:
“We are delighted to welcome Nikkala Kelly to MJC LAW as a Trainee Solicitor. Nikkala stood out from a strong group of applicants as an excellent candidate. It is an exciting time as we help shape the next generation of first-class solicitors.”
Courtney joined MJC LAW as a Legal Secretary in August 2025 and has now been promoted to Trainee Legal Assistant as she enters the fourth and final honours year of her law degree at the University of Strathclyde.
The new role will allow Courtney to continue her studies while building on the practical experience she has gained since joining the firm.
Matthew said:
“We are proud to announce that Courtney Convey will be staying with MJC LAW and has been promoted to Trainee Legal Assistant. Courtney will continue her studies towards a university law degree while gaining rich experience of life at a firm of solicitors. Courtney’s promotion reflects her growing skill set and development at MJC LAW.”
The two appointments underline MJC LAW’s commitment to developing talent at every stage, creating opportunities for those entering the legal profession while supporting existing members of the team to develop their skills, take on greater responsibility and progress in their careers.
