Me in a minute

I find the tactics and psychology of litigation fascinating

Growing up, I wanted to play right wing-back for Spurs.  But sadly, I was born with two left feet and an impressive inability to time a tackle.  More often than not, this meant me either giving away a penalty or getting sent off. 

Since working in law, I always knew that I was better suited to litigation.  I am a sociable person and I love problem-solving.  I enjoy getting to know clients, their objectives and priorities and then resolving their disputes and legal issues.  I find the tactics and psychology of litigation fascinating, as well as understanding the complexities of family and other relationships.  I am also hugely competitive (probably from playing sport).   I work hard and fight for the best possible outcome for clients.
