About
I am a solicitor in our Corporate and Commercial Department. I advise clients on a wide variety of matters and have experience in corporate work including M&A transactions, corporate restructures, shareholders’ agreements and general corporate governance.
I also have experience dealing with articles of association, shareholders’ agreements, corporate directors and officers and their rights and responsibilities.
Having worked on a wide range of M&A transactions I can undertake the necessary due diligence, negotiate and draft the required legal documents.
I completed my training contract with Taylor Walton, and qualified in 2022. Prior to qualifying, I undertook seats in Private Client, Corporate and Commercial, Commercial Real Estate and Commercial Litigation.

I enjoy travelling and surfing.
Experience
- I have been involved in a number of business sales conducted either by way of a share sale or an asset sale, where I have been responsible for drafting important transactional documents as well as filing documents at Companies House. These include the sale of the shares in an online education company and a sale of the assets of a company in the hospitality industry.
- I assist clients with drafting and amending shareholders’ agreements in order to protect their investment, create a balance with the relationship of the shareholders and determine how the company is run.
- I advise clients on their company’s articles of association, including the drafting of the articles and of all ancillary documents required to adopt these, such as board minutes and resolutions.
- I have been involved in a group reorganisation/ simplification which involved a company incorporated in the State of Texas, US and correspondence with US Counsel.
