Biography
I specialise in all areas of Will, Trust and Estate disputes. This includes claims for financial provision under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975 and claims relating to the validity of a Will. I also advise on disputes between beneficiaries and personal representatives.
I have advocacy experience and experience of resolving disputes using alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation.

I spend my time away from the office reading and gardening.
