Alex Haines, Trainee Solicitor

How can I help you?

I am a Trainee Solicitor currently working with the company and commercial team based in the Brentwood office. I have previously completed training within the Private Client and Employment Teams.

Delivering what you need

I enjoy building client relationships and working with colleagues to find practical and commercially viable solutions to our clients’ legal problems. I aim to deal with matters in a cost-effective and timely manner whilst also breaking down complex legal issues to help our clients understand which solution is right for them.

What else should you know?

I studied French and German as an undergraduate before completing a master’s degree in history at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. I then went on to complete my law conversion courses at City, University of London, competing in an international mooting competition and achieving a distinction in the Legal Practice Course.

I joined Tees in October 2022, briefly working in the Employment Team as a Client Care Coordinator, before commencing my training contract with the firm in March 2023.

Outside of work I am a keen cricketer and enjoy taking any opportunities I get to travel, especially to France and Germany. I also enjoy giving back to the community and have participated in multiple fundraisers for charities including the RNLI and Maggie’s.
