"I am a legal director in the personal injury department. I have handled a wide range of claims over the last 25 years. I am committed to helping clients who have suffered injury through no fault of their own.”
I have worked in the Black Country throughout my legal career. I strive to help clients to obtain justice. I deal with serious accidents arising from road traffic accidents, accidents at work, public liability claims and fatal accidents.
I am very passionate about achieving a successful result for the client, not only in relation to a financial settlement but also in respect to any rehabilitation needs to aid recovery.
I try to explain the legal process clearly and in a straightforward manner, avoiding complex legal jargon. When clients have suffered a serious and traumatic injury, they and their loved ones need support to help guide them through the legal process.
I am, I think, approachable and over the years I have developed a strong connection with clients when working with them to help them achieve a favourable outcome and the compensation they deserve.
I am a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers.

- Achieved a large settlement for a claimant who suffered a brain injury when innocently caught up in a brawl that broke out in a pub.
