A skilled advocate with a track record of success.

I am a barrister with over 30 years experience in Family and Estate Litigation, Employment Law and Civil Litigation.

I work with my clients to understand what their situation actually is, where do they want to be at the end of this process and what does it look like. I am a pragmatist by nature and try to get to the bottom of the problem quickly and cost effectively.

I am a trained mediator and wherever I can I look to use alternative dispute resolution processes. Why? Because it puts you the client front and centre in the resolution, your stuff isn’t decided by someone else.

Resolving disputes over estates, contracts, property, & employment.
