Practice Areas

I have specialised in employment law for over 20 years. I currently live in Cheshire and am Head of the Manchester office. I like to think that I am down-to-earth and approachable and that my advice is always straight forward and practical. My aim is to help clients get to where they want to get to with minimum legal risk, taking into account wider business issues and not just the law.

A large part of my role involves managing client relationships, which I enjoy very much, but I am still a hands-on lawyer and assist with both day-to-day employment issues and the more complex and / or sensitive ones.

Alongside my advisory work, I enjoy providing bespoke training and contributing to the press. I am also one of the founding members of our In-House Employment Lawyers' Community (IHELC).

I sit on the Firm's EIR ExCo, the Wellbeing Committee, the DE&I Gender Group and am the Firm's Partner sponsor for the Mindful Business Charter.

My clients include household name brands across a variety of sectors (notably transport, retail, finance and media / entertainment) as well as local businesses based in the North of England.
