I deal with a broad mixture of residential and commercial conveyancing work. I am the head of the residential and commercial property department.I am proud that our firm has attained the Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme and I am the senior reporting officer for this scheme in our firm.I have a great interest in risk and compliance and how through the use of processes and standards we can manage risk and ensure compliance and at the same time we can improve the service we offer our clients. Before joining Williams Thompson, I enjoyed a twelve year career in a large multinational retailer working in a number of commercial management roles and later as an IT project manager. Having obtained a broad commercial experience I decided to take on a new challenge and completed the Legal Practice Course at Bournemouth University obtaining a distinction as well as winning a Law Society Prize for the highest aggregate marks achieved on that course. I bring a wealth of personal experience and knowledge to Williams Thompson and to my client matters.Outside Williams Thompson I am a member of Christchurch Round Table and a parent governor of the Priory School Christchurch.I am a former the President of the Christchurch Chamber of Trade Committee, a former chairman of Christchurch Round Table and a former member of the Bournemouth and District Law Society Committee .
