I am a civil litigation barrister, having gained substantial experience at two international law firms prior to my admission to the Bar. Clients have praised my technical ability and attention to fine detail.
My practice involves advising individuals (generally commercial and residential landlords), SMEs and large corporations on a wide range of commercial disputes including but not limited to contractual disputes, supply of goods and services, debt recovery and enforcement of personal guarantees.
I have experience in providing advice on prospects of success and/or the amount of damages recoverable, drafting documents (both pre-action and during litigation) and advising on strategy in conference.
I am a traditional trial advocate and clients have commented on my calm but effective manner of cross-examination.
Almost a decade of practising litigation, and 5 years in commercial litigation and insolvency.
I adhere to the principle of putting the client’s best interests first. When I provide advice to clients, I always consider the commercial aspects (i.e. prospects of success versus cost-effectiveness of running the claim or defence) and the best strategy to get the best outcome.
As the law can be daunting and confusing, I always ensure that I do away with legalese and explain the facts/the law to my clients in a manner which is simplistic, easy to understand and take in.
I am efficient, responsive and known by clients to turn around work well-ahead of any set deadlines.
At hearings/trials, lay-clients have praised my ability to bring a sense of calmness with my demeanor.
I accept instructions on a wide range of commercial disputes including contractual disputes, debt recovery, supply of goods and services and enforcement of personal guarantees.
I am very experienced in commercial debt recovery and regularly represent some of the leading insurers, technology giants, banks, energy providers, shopping complexes, private schools, legal experts and builders’ merchants in the UK.

I attend bankruptcy and winding-up hearings on a regular basis at the Royal Courts of Justice and regional Business & Property courts. Aside from attending hearings, I have experience of drafting:
Due to my specialism of debt recovery, clients regularly instruct me to attend enforcement hearings. I am able to attend the following hearings:
I am very well-versed in costs law, having practised in this area of law exclusively for a period of 4 years. I have substantial experience in attending Costs and Case Management Conferences (CCMCs), costs applications, summary and detailed assessment hearings.
