A bit about me

With more than 20 years of experience as a costs lawyer, I provide support to solicitors in all aspects of costs recovery and funding. It’s my job to maximise the recovery of costs from the opposing party in legal challenges, and keep clients apprised of the risks they may encounter. I have worked for both claimant and defendant, insurers, lay clients, and large companies.

Outside of work, I am passionate about walking (especially on the south coast), keeping fit, and cooking.
