Professional background

Professional background

I am a Senior Associate in our corporate department, specialising in M&A, private equity and venture capital, with a particular focus on the life sciences, technology and financial sectors.
 
Working alongside our other specialist departments including tax, funds, employment and banking, my focus is on advising our clients on a wide range of cross-border, multinational and domestic transactions, including equity funding, strategic acquisitions, bolt-on acquisitions, management buy-ins/buy-outs and exits.
 
Having acted as counsel for both investor and company from early stage investment right the way through to exit (and at every other stage of equity funding in between), I use my experience to offer insights on prevailing market trends and provide thoughtful advice, tailored to help each client plan ahead for the next step in their journey.

Client
After having spent many months working with Josh on multiple cross-border acquisitions, I can say with great confidence that he is an excellent attorney. He repeatedly went above and beyond for me and my team, providing excellent legal expertise while working endlessly to account for every aspect of a transaction and tie up all loose ends (including long after closing). I look forward to working with Josh again in the future on many transactions yet to come.
