Regan Cooke
Regan is a Trainee Solicitor working in the Residential Property Team in Ringwood.
Regan graduated from Bournemouth University with an LLB degree in Law and gained valuable hands-on experience during her placement year with a local law firm, where she worked within the Residential Property department. She joined Frettens as a Graduate Legal Assistant, initially supporting the Family team as part of the firm's Graduate Scheme.
In September 2025, Regan began her Training Contract with Frettens, starting in the Family team based in Ringwood. She has since moved into her second seat with the Residential Property team, where she is continuing to build her legal knowledge and develop her practical experience. Regan will soon be joining the Wills & Tax team in our Wimborne office for her next seat, giving her the opportunity to gain valuable insight in private client work as she continues her training journey.
Outside of work, Regan enjoys making the most of her free time by discovering new restaurants, travelling abroad, and spending quality time with friends and family. Regan also enjoys beach walks with her dog, Daisy, who is always happy to join her adventures along the coast.
