I’m prepared to go the extra mile for my clients, using my legal and procedural knowledge to its maximum to take into account long-term healthcare and the lifestyle of those I represent, ensuring they receive the best compensation outcomes, including physiotherapy and psychological counselling.

Career Highlights
Where my clients have sustained life changing injuries, I strive to ensure they receive the very best levels of support, rehabilitation, state of the art prosthetics and compensation to help to secure their futures.
One considerable achievement was representing a German national who suffered upper and lower limb amputations in an accident in the UK.
The case reached the High Court in London and a compensation settlement of Euros 1.75m was made.
I simply try to put my clients first. I have seen them in hospital wards and at home and it has been a privileged to witness some truly remarkable recoveries.
Karl was hit by a gas cylinder which ‘flew like a missile’ across the factory and resulted in him requiring reconstructive surgery.
In another case I represented a roofer who was left unable to work after fall from ladders on ‘dangerous’ scaffolding. Interim payments were secured to help financially and the final settlement meant he no longer had a mortgage.
