“Especially when you come from a non-law background or a low socio-economic background or even different ethnicities or genders, you feel like you don’t necessarily fit in, so when you’re asking a certain type of person questions that you don’t feel are intellectual, then you start to question whether you actually fit in at all.” – Gabrielle Coates, barrister.
