Why choose me

Before becoming a lawyer, I worked in the book publishing industry in a sales and marketing capacity for seven years. Given my experience of working in a commercial environment, becoming a corporate lawyer advising on commercial transactions seemed a logical progression.  Then early in my legal career I worked in-house for an international banking group, and so I have also been able to bring my knowledge and experience of banking and finance to bear on my subsequent career back in private practice.

Having been involved in transactional work for over 25 years there are few issues or situations that I haven’t come across before.  As well as acting for individual business owners and investors, I’ve worked with a wide range of corporate and institutional clients in various sectors, including government agencies, construction companies, property developers, family trusts and banks.

I help owner-managers to develop their businesses and to achieve their ultimate objectives, whether that is in the form of equity release, a trade sale or successful succession planning. I also specialise in mergers and acquisitions, corporate reorganisations and restructuring, equity investments and funding and debt funding (acting for both lenders and borrowers).

Outside of work, I enjoy listening to and making music (I belong to a large choral society), spending time with my wife and family, and looking after our two horses and dog.
