Professional background

My practice covers everything from brand protection to enforcement and litigation.  I specialise in trade marks, copyright, domain names and designs but I also have experience with patents and technology and data disputes.

I have worked for a variety of well-known clients, from pharmaceutical companies and sports clients to tech giants and fashion brands.

I founded and chair the firm's Women@Work initiative and have been nominated for the HERoes Role Models Lists 2024. I have also won awards for my probono work, recently being listed on the inaugural Probono Recognition List 2024 for my charity work for the National Deaf Children's Society – for which I recently advocated at the Royal Courts of Justice.

I completed the Oxford Postgraduate Diploma in Intellectual Property Law & Practice and am a member of IPSoc (the society for junior IP practitioners) and AIPPI UK.

Please click below for the table.
