“I'm an experienced specialist real estate lawyer who is always thinking about my clients’ end goals and objectives.

I’ve worked with a lot of retail clients, and it's always really interesting seeing how their property needs and "bricks and mortar" premises requirements constantly change with the times.

I think of myself as an all-rounder with strong experience in getting the deal done. I'm straight-shooting, responsive, and always have strategy in mind throughout the transaction.

I like to operate on the basis that we’re all part of the same team – which means good, clear, and regular communication is important to me.  It's not just about sending emails; very often, it's about picking up the phone and talking directly.”
