About Me

With over 20 years' experience in the legal sector, I work closely with solicitors, law firms, accountants, and members of the public to connect them with the right barrister for their needs. I have extensive experience across both the Licensed Access Scheme and Public Access Scheme, giving me a clear understanding of how to support a wide range of clients efficiently and effectively.

My background includes senior roles across leading sets. I have acted as Practice Manager at Partnership Counsel, supporting specialist barristers in partnership, LLP, and limited partnership matters. I also served as Head of Tax at The Barrister Group and as Senior Clerk at Exchequer Chambers.

Legal directories have described me as an “excellent” clerk who is “exceptionally easy to work with and efficient,” reflecting my focus on responsiveness and delivering practical solutions.

I manage the day-to-day running of barristers' practices, including diary management, fixing hearings, and case coordination. I act as a first point of contact for clients, guiding you to the most suitable barrister for your matter, with clear advice on availability, turnaround times, and fee structures from the outset.

I take a proactive and flexible approach. I do not just identify the right counsel—I work with you to ensure the most cost-effective and efficient use of their time. This includes helping you scope work appropriately and avoid unnecessary cost.

I am used to dealing with urgent and time-sensitive matters and can move quickly when needed. Where appropriate, I can also recommend experienced solicitors who are well suited to supporting professional clients.

You can expect a responsive, straightforward, and commercially focused approach. I understand that partnership and tax matters are often complex and sensitive, particularly where disputes arise. My role is to make the process easier for you by providing clarity, speed, and access to the right expertise.

If you are looking for guidance on instructing counsel, or want to explore your options, I am always happy to have an initial conversation at short notice.
