I work on Lexis+, writing, editing and commissioning practical guidance for lawyers in my specialist area, public law.

Partly, it's about writing and editing detailed practical guidance for lawyers, and commissioning.

I taught public, criminal and EU law, and English legal system on the OU's law degree programme.

London, United Kingdom

I prosecuted benefit fraud cases, which is far more interesting than it sounds: the bigger cases involved organised crime networks, and required me to draft and obtain orders from High Court judges to restrain and confiscate hundreds of thousands of pounds in criminal assets. I found prosecution much more interesting than the defence work I'd done, partly.
