Haaris studied Law at the University of Sheffield before completing the LPC at the University of Law. He undertook pro-bono work for the Miscarriages of Justice Centre at university, and also worked in civil litigation before joining the team at JWP. Outside of work, Haaris is a big fan of well-made coffee, a good game of chess, and long hikes through the Peak District – enjoying a balance between thoughtful challenges and time spent outdoors.
