Who am I
I’m a Managing Director of Serious Injury, and have dedicated my career over the last 30 years to supporting individuals and families whose lives have been profoundly impacted by injury.
I’m privileged to lead an exceptional team of over 360 professionals, who all share my commitment to achieving access to justice and the best possible outcomes for our clients. We’ve achieved remarkable success, building one of the most respected personal injury practices in the industry. Together, we consistently deliver outstanding client care while pushing the boundaries of legal excellence and innovation.
Why I do this work
What drives me every day is the difference we make in our clients’ lives. Navigating the aftermath of life-altering injuries is challenging, but our work goes beyond securing the best possible results. It’s about restoring dignity, independence, and hope for the future. Seeing the impact we can have on someone’s life is the reason I’m so passionate about what I do.
How I work with clients
In addition to leading the department, I remain involved in representing a number of clients. This means I stay connected to the heart of our work and reinforces my passion for making a real difference.
I’m incredibly proud of what we have accomplished so far, and I’m excited about the opportunities to continue growing, innovating, and delivering extraordinary outcomes for those who need it most.

Outside of work
My family are hugely important to me. I enjoy time outside walking or pottering about in the garden. I also enjoy great food – albeit not cooked by me!
