Professional background

Professional background

My practice covers a broad range of commercial disputes. Matters I have worked on include a variety of contractual disputes, professional negligence claims, and claims involving fraudulent conduct.

I have assisted with various high value, multi-jurisdictional cases and have worked for clients across a range of sectors from financial services to media. I have also spent 6 months working in-house for a global broadcaster and entertainment company.

Alongside my fee earning work, I support the management of Fieldfisher's pro bono clinic with the charity Mencap in which we provide legal advice and representation to people with a learning disability who are being denied the right social care support. I recently successfully appealed against the decision of a local authority to significantly cut the care plan of one of our clients.
