BIOGRAPHY


I am a barrister specialising in employment law and commercial and civil litigation. My practice includes a full range of statutory claims before the ET and common law actions in the High Court with a particular emphasis on injunctive relief work. I act in civil and commercial litigation in the High Court and County Court, particularly in claims involving contractual disputes. 


I am often instructed by professionals, including medical professionals, teachers, bankers and accountants. I also have experience of international law and foreign jurisdictions. I have a masters degree in international law and have spent time working for the United Nations in a war crimes tribunal in Bosnia. 


In addition to my legal practice I also lecture and publish. I am a guest lecturer at 2 London universities and have authored numerous articles.
