Native english speaker, professionally qualified

English is my home language, and I believe even for a native English speaker, is of a high standard. I am a qualified attorney, although I do not practise anymore. As such, words and reasoning were the tools of my trade and I was always told that my drafting of legal papers was of an extremely high standard. At present I am a full-time writer. As I grew up before the Google era, I am used to researching independently and drafting original content. In fact it is an anathema to me to plagiarise someone else's work. I am also something of a punctuation freak, there's nothing I hate more than commas and apostrophes in the wrong place! As I am writing full time, I am able to complete work quickly. So please give a newbie a chance to prove her worth!

With the recession in 2008, I lost a lot of property work and had to diversify into more general legal work incl
