"I work with clients to get them into the deals they want, and to keep them out of the trouble they don't."

"Over the years I have built trusting, long-term relationships with a range of clients based on a deep sectoral knowledge and a focus on their specific objectives and challenges. Becoming well-integrated with client teams enables me to offer pragmatic, strategic advice that aligns legal solutions to business priorities. 

My experience includes secondments to the in-house legal teams at a media and telecoms company and a global consumer technology brand, which has given me first-hand experience of what clients really want – and need – from their legal advisers. In short, I work with clients to get them into the deals they want, and to keep them out of the trouble they don't."
