Strengths

Provided by Chambers

Amy is remarkably versatile across company law and trust and estate disputes, and she delivers at a pace that consistently impresses. She is genuinely happy to engage with complex issues at short notice, and when she gives advice, she backs it: no hedging, no equivocation. As an advocate, she has a sharp eye for the points that matter and pursues them with real skill. She picks up on things others miss, and she does it under pressure without breaking stride. She is the kind of counsel you want on the end of the phone when something urgent lands on your desk.
