“I adapt well to the changing demands of high-value commercial litigation”

“I enjoy working in commercial and banking disputes because the work is so varied and I enjoy the fast-paced environment. I adapt well to the changing demands of high-value commercial litigation, and work closely with the matter partner to ensure that the associate and barrister team runs smoothly and efficiently.

Almost all of the cases I work on have an international element. I have a lot of experience in cross-border fraud cases, including tracing assets through multiple jurisdictions, liaising with lawyers in Europe, the US and Asia, and litigating foreign law claims in the English Courts.

My focus is always on providing commercially-minded, to-the-point advice that enables clients to make informed legal decisions.”
