About

I am a dispute resolution lawyer who advises clients on a wide range of contentious commercial matters, assisting them with every aspect of their dispute from pre-action strategy to settlement or trial.

I have experience advising clients in relation to a broad range of commercial matters and disputes, including fraud, professional negligence, joint ventures, insolvency, franchises, and general breaches of contract.

This advice allows clients to litigate with confidence, but also to consider commercially sensible alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation and settlement offers.

Besides law, I am a keen photographer and cyclist and spend the rest of my free time with my nephew.
