Career

I am a leading serious injury lawyer and partner in the personal injury and asbestos claims team at Fieldfisher.

I am recognised by the legal directories for my hard work and dedication in achieving the best results for my clients and in particular for my client handling skills.

I specialise in complex, high-value personal injury claims, with 15 years’ experience representing people injured in accidents in the UK and abroad, including:

My focus is to secure immediate medical and financial support for clients to enable their rehabilitation. I also represent the families of those killed in accidents at inquests and in their personal injury claims. I have an excellent reputation for achieving substantial settlements for clients suffering from asbestos-related diseases.

I am regularly instructed to take over cases when clients are dissatisfied with their previous solicitors or where cases have been undervalued. I also act for several clients in claims against their previous solicitors for under-settling a claim or for incorrect advice.
