I have been a Solicitor for 40 years. For much of that time, I had a management role in a busy firm.
My main areas of legal work have been -
Housing disrepair
Serious PI
Clinical Negligence
I have a longstanding interest in Practice Management, especially Professional Indemnity Insurance, Risk Management and Regulatory Compliance.
I was awarded Legal Entrepreneur of the Year 2015 by Downtown in Business, Liverpool and in 2016 steered EAD to the Best Legal Firm award at The City of Liverpool Business Awards.
