About me
As a Partner in our Commercial Dispute Resolution team, I advise businesses and individuals on high-value, high-stakes commercial and corporate disputes.
I bring over 15 years’ experience to my role and act on disputes ranging from breach of contract claims and shareholder disputes to multi-party fraud, post-M&A litigation and restrictive covenant matters. These often involve urgent injunctions or cross-border elements. I also specialise in reputation management and contentious data protection and am a certified data protection practitioner.
Clients value my ability to cut through complexity and offer clear, commercially focused advice. My approach is practical, strategic and built around what matters most to them.
The Legal 500 names me a ‘Key Lawyer’ and Chambers UK lists me as ‘up and coming.’ I’m proud to support LJMU’s Legal Advice Clinic and our Schools’ Outreach Programme.
As a David Bowie fan, I believe his music is timeless.
