Why choose me
International deals can be a challenge, even for the most experienced operator. If you need someone to help you navigate the tricky waters of international commercial banking, I’m on hand to ensure you reach a fair agreement.
I work with both lenders and borrowers across the globe, from acting for UK development finance institutions that specialise in African agricultural projects, to assisting Norwegian borrowers that control the biggest forestry projects in Africa. I make a point of understanding the commercial dynamics of a deal, look closely at every element to ensure my clients achieve what they set out to do. I’m not just a banking and finance lawyer – I’m an experienced guide in an often-complex area, and I’m passionate about getting the outcome that’s most beneficial for all parties.
It should be no surprise that I love to travel – I’ve recently been to Cuba and Guatemala – and I enjoy running and hill walking in my spare time.

Questions my clients ask me
That’s always a difficult question – you know what’s best for your business, after all. I’ll summarise the pros and cons for you, and translate the legal issues into commercial considerations, so that you can make an informed, balanced decision.
Commercial contracts, including banking documents, are about allocating the risks fairly in line with the market. I’ll work with you to understand whether you, or another party, should bear the risk in the context of the deal.
