I have been a practising Barrister since October 2000 and have provided legal and company secretarial services to a broad range of clients in areas including Construction, Engineering and Technology, Travel and Tourism, Insurance, Not-For-Profit, Charity, the food and drinks retail industry, music and radio industry, and Property Management.
My skills and experience have been developed through years of legal drafting, advisory and advocacy work and from in-house legal and co sec positions which include Broadway Malyan Limited a top ten International architectural company, ICAP plc a FTSE 100 finance company, an AIMS listed company and various NGOs organised from within the Crown Agents alongside DIFD.
I now offer this unique combination of services with my very real passion for good business to provide a professional "one stop shop" for all your business's company secretarial and legal needs and aim to give you an efficient and affordable service.
I can give you up to date advice and assistance with all your Company’s legal, regulatory and statutory administration needs, ensuring that your business effectively manages and mitigates risk. Your business will be in a "safe pair of hands".
For legal issues and concerns you can approach me directly because I have been a Direct Access Barrister since 2005. What this means for you is that you are able to deal directly with the representative who will manage your legal matter from start to finish including in the court room if necessary. This will give your business a more cost efficient and pragmatic alternative to the traditional ways of working with a firm of accountants or solicitors.
Furthermore, as an accredited Mediator, Arbitrator and Technology and Construction Bar Association approved Adjudicator you can be confident that I am able to propose and negotiate commercially realistic solutions to your business needs and help you to settle for more:
