“Clients value my pragmatic perspective and strong technical capabilities”

“I first qualified in Australia, and have significant experience in Australian claims.

I’m friendly and approachable, and clients value my pragmatic perspective and strong technical capabilities. I’m able to cut through and simplify the issues, narrow down to what is really in dispute, and work towards the best possible outcome for the client.”
