About me
Working primarily with NHS bodies, I help my clients navigate the Court of Protection and cases within the Family Courts, in the most efficient way possible.
I have considerable expertise in advising on a wide range of family and health matters. This covers serious medical treatment cases, complex family proceedings, safeguarding, fertility and surrogacy matters, international relocation and child-abduction matters, complex care proceedings in the Family Courts and health and welfare matters in the Court of Protection, including matters concerning the deprivation of individuals’ liberty.
Clients describe me as hardworking and dedicated and I’m committed to helping them reach the best outcomes possible. My breadth of knowledge and public sector experience set me apart, allowing to me to provide practical advice and solutions that maximise their chances of achieving those outcomes.
The public sector has played a pivotal role in my career, which has spanned over two decades, and I’m committed to supporting it in whatever way I can. I also help organise sports activities in my local community.
