Legal Problem?
Look no further!
I am a local barrister serving the people of Bamford and
Norden and surrounding areas
Following my transfer from the Roll of Solicitors to the Bar after ten years in
the insurance industry, I understand the needs of litigants and am committed to
achieving the best possible outcomes for my clients.
I regularly conduct trials for Claimants and Defendants in the County Courts across
the UK and act for many of the country’s leading solicitors, public bodies and
insurers. I am a qualified Costs Lawyer and affiliate member of the Association of
Costs Lawyers and Mediator of the Civil Mediation Council.
In addition to my Civil work, I have a thriving Family practice and also
represent clients accused of offences in the Magistrates Court via the
Direct Access Scheme.
I deal in business and commercial matters including consumer contracts and debt.
I also undertake property work on behalf of landlords and tenants.
