Hazel is an Associate in our Commercial and Banking Litigation team. She represents clients ranging from individuals to listed companies on a broad range of disputes, often spanning multiple jurisdictions. Prior to moving to the UK, Hazel spent two years in the Enforcement team at the regulator of financial markets in New Zealand, advising on investigations and enforcement action.

"I pride myself on being hard-working, approachable, and focused on finding solutions."

"I am detail-oriented but always keep the broader context in mind. I take the time to genuinely understand my clients' businesses and goals, regularly checking in to ensure our strategy remains aligned with their evolving needs.

Having spent two years working in-house, I understand the pressures clients face. That experience informs my approach to client service and helps me deliver practical, commercially aware advice.

I pride myself on being hard-working, approachable, and focused on finding solutions. My communication style is clear, concise, and tailored to suit each client’s needs and preferences."

Hazel's recent work highlights:

Acting for the defendant shareholders to an unfair prejudice petition. 

Acting for a defendant in high-value High Court proceedings brought by the Kuwaiti Public Institution for Social Security alleging a large-scale fraud.
