About me

I’m a commercial litigator with experience in construction, real estate and commercial litigation.

I’m known for my expertise in Building Safety Act matters and I’ve acted in high profile cases, including one of the first ever Remediation Contribution Orders heard by the courts.

I also advise on property acquisitions and redevelopment, high value fraud claims and Consumer Credit Act 1974 cases along with matters relating to breaches of confidence, the unlawful use of confidential information and the misappropriation of trade secrets.

I’m well versed in managing complex, multi-party litigation from start to finish – whether that’s carrying out major disclosure exercises, gathering expert evidence or preparing for trial.

I always put my best foot forward, bringing a calm, confident presence, a positive mindset, and a highly efficient working style, ensuring I achieve the best results for every client.

I enjoy being the expert clients can rely on to solve problems. It’s so rewarding whenever I help clients overcome challenges to reach a favourable settlement or a successful outcome in court.

Outside of work, I enjoy swimming and I aim to swim the English Channel one day. I’m also a proud mum to a young daughter.
