Professional support lawyer providing litigation updates, training and insights

I’m a Professional Support Lawyer in Shoosmiths’ Dispute Resolution and Litigation team, delivering legal updates, training, practical guidance and other resources to our lawyers and clients.  I am passionate about communicating technical legal developments in a way that is relevant, practical and accessible, ensuring we are focussed on what matters.

Prior to joining Shoosmiths in 2025, I trained and practised as a litigator in the London office of a large national firm for many years, including two secondments to one of the ‘big four’ retail banks, before moving into a knowledge role.  My experience in practice includes complex professional negligence claims, cross-border enforcement and recovery actions, remediation projects and, for several years, acting on the ‘Ingenious Litigation’ (one of The Lawyer’s Top 20 cases of 2018).

I’m a member of the Association of Litigation Professional Support Lawyers and work closely with my fellow PSLs within Shoosmiths, particularly those supporting other teams also undertaking contentious work.
