About me

Because employment law is so fluid and demands both a high level of legal expertise and an understanding of people and what makes them tick, I find it challenging and stimulating. I work for a wide range of people, from manufacturing and construction clients to a large university and media and recruitment companies.

Making a difference to my clients and solving their business challenges is my prime motivation. Whether you just need a guiding hand, some help with a negotiation or litigation advice, I aim always to give straightforward and practical advice that really helps.

Outside work, I have a real passion for road cycling and spend many happy hours riding anywhere from Malvern to Majorca.

Top Tips & FAQs

Discover my top tips

Make sure your employment contracts and policies are robust and up to date. You never know when you might need to rely on them.

Raise performance or conduct issues with staff in a timely fashion and in accordance with your own policies, keeping good records of any discussions held. If you delay too long, you might expose your business to allegations of unfair treatment or discrimination.

Treat your staff fairly and consistently, and foster a culture of openness and effective, two-way communication.
