Areas of Law:
Dispute resolution
Your Approach:
I take pride in being able to deliver the right advice to clients while being sympathetic to their expectations. I always provide advice which takes into account the surrounding factors of a dispute so that any solution is commercially viable. I appreciate that whether my client is large business or an individual, most of the time their best interests are served by avoiding court based proceedings. However, in cases where proceedings are unavoidable, I enjoy taking the initiative and pushing hard for the right result.
Professional Associations and Qualifications:
- LLB Law Degree (2:1)
- Post Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice (Commendation)
Your Route to Ellis Jones:
After completion of my studies I worked at a magic circle firm in Sheffield as part of a team defending a multi-million pound class action on behalf of the government. I then worked in London for a year gaining further experience in property law and litigation. I joined Ellis Jones in September 2007 and currently enjoy working as part of our dispute resolution team as we seek to expand and develop the services offered to our clients.
Outside Work:
Having enjoyed a ski season in the French Alps my main passion outside of work is skiing. I also enjoy running and generally keeping fit and hope to compete in my first triathlon later in the year.
