Strengths
A leading expert in pharmacy law and my go-to barrister in this area. He has an excellent touch with cross-examination, is approachable and is on top of the papers always.
He has such in-depth knowledge of pharmaceutical regulation and is superb tactically too. Clients love him as they feel he is on their side.
He is a charming advocate who really charms tribunals and puts his submissions in a lovely, eloquent way.
