About me
I specialise in acting for defendants in personal injury claims, supporting them every step of the way, from the initial accident investigation right through to trial.
I’m especially experienced in marine-related claims, and regularly act for ship owners, offshore companies and their insurers along with port, cruise, yacht, travel and ferry operators. My expertise also spans travel and general employers’ liability as well as public liability personal injury claims.
Clients describe me as someone who is friendly, knowledgeable and diligent. Drawing on my technical experience, I leave no stone unturned when I take up a claim, enabling me to deliver practical solutions that help my clients navigate through tough circumstances to reach a successful outcome.
Building and maintaining strong relationships is vital to what I do. I go to great lengths to gain a sound understanding of what my clients want, while acting transparently and communicating clearly, so my clients can trust me to be there for them, not just today, but for the long term.
