About Me

I started my career in the legal field at a legal firm in Chester and worked there for over 20 years. I specialised in trade union personal injury law, before moving to the Dental Law Partnership in 2019.

Outside of work, I am passionate about football and I have a season ticket at Liverpool FC. I am also a keen traveller, and I love spending time with my family and my German Shepherd puppy Lexi.

Experience

I have worked within the legal field for over 20 years, which has given me a great deal of experience in the sector. 

I previously worked in personal injury law with a range of large trade union clients, before pivoting to work with the Dental Law Partnership in 2019. Since then, I have gained a range of valuable experience in dealing with dental negligence claims.

I am also SRA (Solicitors Regulation Authority) regulated.

Qualifications

I originally started work as a Legal Admin, studying alongside my employment. I commenced studying for the CILEX qualification and in 2005 I became a Legal Executive, before continuing further with my studies and qualifying as a solicitor in 2010. 

If you’d like to find out how I can help you with your dental negligence claim, please get in touch here.
