What do you love most about your job?
I have seen at first hand the significant impact that clinical negligence can have upon victims. In being able to bring a successful claim, it is immensely rewarding to see the difference that this can make to Clients and their families.
What do you like to do outside work?
I enjoy spending time with my wife and children. I am a keen sports person (both participating and watching). After retiring from playing local league football, I have returned to my passion of running. I also enjoy reading.
