Funmi's career began at Simmons’ London office, where a pro-bono project during her training contract ignited her passion for financial inclusion. Over two decades, she served as a legal adviser in the financial institutions sector, both in-house and in private practice. First retraining as a mortgage adviser, Funmi now empowers others as a financial educator, coach, trainer, and consultant.
Lucy Lambert's journey at Simmons began in 1984 as a junior secretary, aged 16. Over 23 years at the firm, she embraced new opportunities in roles as a head secretary, IT training lead, business analyst, and project manager. Lucy's adaptability and continuous learning propelled her into her current career as a Legal Operations consultant.


Pascal is a lawyer turned entrepreneur. He moved from Clifford Chance to work as a senior lawyer with Simmons in Germany in 2014. A desire to do something different led to a change in career in 2018 to start his own legaltech business. Pascal describes developing the business as "an emotional rollercoaster" that was ultimately a rewarding experience.
Arijit's professional journey came full circle when he rejoined Simmons' Singapore office in 2022, after a seven-year hiatus. Initially starting at the firm as a trainee, Arijit played a key role in the 2013 opening of the Singapore office. His external experiences, notably as in-house counsel at JP Morgan, honed his skills, and he returned to Simmons with energy and enthusiasm.
