On your side

I enjoy what I do and want you to enjoy working with me.

A strong business relationship, built on timely communication, trust and quality work is what you can expect.

I learnt a lot in my time at some of the world’s leading law firms but realised that the more senior I became, the less I was doing what I loved – hands-on marketing. That’s why I launched my own consultancy over seven years ago. I now advise law firms and alternative legal service providers across communications, business development, and marketing.

My broad experience allows me to see the bigger picture, providing you with advice that is not limited to one marketing discipline. You can find out more about my background by visiting my profile.

I work with a limited number of clients on a retained or project basis. This enables me to gain a deep understanding of your business and provide consistently high-quality advice and service. I guarantee complete confidentiality and promise not to work with any of your direct competitors on similar projects at the same time. At the outset of our relationship, I will work with you to agree a clearly defined scope of work and timescale, providing you with complete certainty on fees.

I live in North London with my partner and our two children. I enjoy cooking, running and music. Outside of the legal sector I help promote Classic Ibiza.
