Get to know the Exec TeamRahil Chaudhari

In each edition of our SOLO Journal, we ask one of the Executive Committee Team a range of 10 random questions so that you can get to know them better. In this edition of Get to Know the Executive Team we speak to Rahil Chauhari, of Arlingsworth Solicitors and our new Vice-Chair, to understand what motivates him, what his first job was, and who his hero is.

WHY LAW?

I always enjoyed analysing things as a child, so when it came to choosing a career, I chose law so that I could make use of my analytical skills in a positive way.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE THING ABOUT YOUR CAREER?

No one day is the same, you don’t know what or who you are going to deal with each day, and it’s very satisfying to solve problems for your clients.

WHAT MOTIVATES YOU?

Being a lawyer means that I can contribute towards society in a meaningful way.

WHAT DID YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU WERE A CHILD? A lawyer or working in a creative environment.

WHAT WAS YOUR FIRST JOB? A bartender.

IF YOU COULD MAKE ONE RULE THAT EVERYONE HAD TO FOLLOW, WHAT RULE WOULD YOU MAKE? Always be glamorous.

WHO IS YOUR HERO? WHY?

Joan Collins, because of her old Hollywood glamour, her work ethic and at 90 she still embraces life to the full.

IF YOU COULD BRING BACK ONE TV SHOW THAT WAS CANCELLED, WHICH ONE WOULD YOU BRING BACK? Dallas.

WHAT THREE ITEMS WOULD YOU TAKE WITH YOU ON A DESERTED ISLAND?

A shoe trunk, a vanity box with creams and sun cream, and a nice silk dressing gown.

WHAT IS THE MOST ANNOYING QUESTION THAT PEOPLE ASK YOU? What made you go into law?

Welcome to our SPG Vice Chair

On behalf of the Executive Committee and myself, it gives me great pleasure in welcoming Rahil Chaudhari as our new Vice Chair of the SPG. Rahil who has been a member of the SPG Executive Committee since 2013, will take over as Chair of the SPG, when my current term ends.

In the 10 years that Rahil has been a member of the Executive Committee, he has worked extremely hard for the benefit our members and I know he will continue to do so. He will bring a wealth of knowledge, alternative thinking and a different perspective in his role of Chair.
