Are you looking for fast, reliable and affordable legal advice from an expert who will listen to you sympathetically, focus on your needs and then fight your case really hard?

I am a barrister with more than 20 years' experience of civil litigation. My specialisms include employment, education and challenges to decisions by public authorities.

You can instruct me directly, without having to go to a solicitor. Using a public access barrister usually compares very favourably with the cost of instructing solicitors, and you are free to choose a barrister of the highest calibre.

I will look at your case without charge and tell you whether I can help. If I can, we will agree a reasonable fee so you will know what you are getting and what it will cost. If I can't, I'll try to point you towards someone who can.

Educated at Cambridge University and the Sorbonne, Paris, I practise at 11KBW, one of the country's top chambers. You can read more about us and see my full profile by clicking on the links below.

I was appointed Queen's Counsel (QC) in 2014. My clients include employees, students and parents, companies, institutions and HM Government. My advocacy experience has ranged from local tribunals to the Supreme Court. I am also an accredited Mediator.

Legal Directories say:

“A fantastic lawyer.”

“A clear and calm advocate.”

"A very clear thinker, who is admirably calm and always stands his ground."

"Sharp intellect and approachable manner."
