About me

An expert in costs litigation and costs management, I provide clients with effective strategies to recover costs and minimise exposure to opponents’ costs.

I work with commercial organisations, along with clients operating in the marine sector such as P&I Clubs and public bodies like NHS Resolution and police forces.

I regularly deal with costs in international arbitration and the High Court, as well as in the business and property courts. I also assist with all aspects of CCMC hearings.

Clients rely on me for clear, succinct advice that will help them make smart decisions. Easy-going by nature, I remain calm and collected no matter the circumstances.

Having worked in the industry for over a decade, I have an extensive understanding of costs law and how it has changed over time. Using this to the client’s advantage. I use this insight to help clients navigate complex legislation and adapt strategies to achieve successful outcomes.
