| Information | I qualified as a solicitor in 1986. Having started undertaking a general mix of litigation work including crime and family work, I began to specialise in serious injury work. I now focus on brain injured clients along with spinal cord cases. I am the Chair of a charity which supports the bereaved after road traffic collisions and consequently, am involved in fatal accidents cases and inquests, too. I also sit as a Deputy District Judge on the North Eastern Circuit in civil cases. I am the senior partner in a law firm based in Leeds. We employ about 130 staff. |
