I am a solicitor specialising in public and administrative law and dispute resolution. I assist public sector clients, particularly further and higher education institutions, across a wide range of contentious issues including internal governance and decision making, equality and diversity duties, data protection and information law and, where necessary, commercial litigation and judicial review.I have previously worked as a lawyer in both the public and private sectors and in-house in both local government and private business. This means that I understand the importance of creating strong client relationships based on trust and transparency. I am also aware of the need to provide clear and concise advice that offers practical solutions to the problems presented.
