Helping you succeed in tomorrow's world

I have a particular interest in advising clients on how to navigate the course of inquests, advising on risk and strategy ahead of hearings and gathering evidence to support clients.

I also enjoy advising on developing areas of regulatory law, particularly ESG and modern slavery regulation. I also lead research on the proposed Protect Duty, and what steps clients might need to consider to meet this regulation.

I keep myself informed on emerging regulation for clients in the tech sector; and how this will affect their duties, the implementation of suitable systems and how any breach of these regulations might be defended – particularly with regard to proposed directors' duties.

I work with clients across a number of industries including healthcare, energy and utilities, tech and social media, and broadcast media.
