If you have been wronged by a professional, or if you are a professional who is accused of doing wrong, I am able to help.
Although I am by profession an advocate, my goal is to find the most cost-effective and least stressful solution to a problem. Whatever the answer is, I will help you find it.
All of my fees are fixed in advance of work being done.

About me
I came to the Bar in 2011 after spending 4 years in a national solicitors’ firm as an advocate. I combine a wealth of experience with a business-focused attitude. I understand what the clients want and how to deliver it.
When not working, I enjoy cooking (badly), health and fitness (occasionally), 80s action films (almost exclusively) and music (don’t ask).
