About me

I am an expert pensions lawyer, who advises trustees and corporate organisations on all aspects of operating pension schemes. My particular experience is in drafting pension scheme documentation along with complex scheme restructuring, funding negotiations and public sector pension schemes.

My collaborative approach underpins my work, and I act as a safe pair of hands that my clients can trust, providing clear, practical advice to help them make difficult decisions and execute complex transactions.

With 20 years’ experience and having previously worked for firms that provide actuarial and pensions administration services, I have an inherent understanding of how core pension advisers work. I collaborate with these advisers, ensuring my clients receive the insight they need to move forward.

No matter how difficult or urgent the matter, I remain level-headed, calm and offer pragmatic guidance.

Making the world a better place is a priority for me and I do my best to help bring about positive change. I’m a qualified Mental Health First Aider and one of the firm’s equality leads. I also lead our Accessibility, Health and Wellbeing networking group, and I’m member of our Menopause networking group.
