Why choose me

I help people and businesses get their deals done without the legal stress. I specialise in corporate acquisitions and disposals, private equity, company secretarial matters and board advice.

I work with a wide range of clients, from large corporates making strategic acquisitions to owner-managed businesses taking the next step in their journey, as well as institutional investors including family funds, venture capital firms and private equity houses.

Fast-paced transactional work suits me because it brings together strategic thinking and real-time problem solving. I enjoy the momentum of deals, the collaborative nature of working with multiple stakeholders and the satisfaction of seeing a transaction move from initial instruction to completion.

Efficiency, clarity and commercial awareness genuinely make a difference. I prioritise clear, proactive communication so you always know where your matter stands and what will happen next.

I take the time to understand your commercial objectives, ensuring my advice is not only legally sound but strategically aligned with your goals. Building strong relationships is central to my approach – I want us to enjoy the journey of the deal together.

I make myself available at the key stages of a transaction so you feel supported during time-sensitive moments. Clients value my ability to explain complex issues in a straightforward way and to act as a trusted partner, not just a legal adviser.

I anticipate issues before they arise and offer practical solutions that keep your transaction moving smoothly. I’m committed to delivering results efficiently, without compromising on quality.

Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my two boys and keeping fit – I’ve run the Reading half marathon nine times, the London marathon twice and many other half marathons and 10k races, and I’m currently training for my first Hyrox competition. I also love live music, plays and musicals.
