I was admitted as a solicitor in 1977 and spent twenty years working in London, initially with Waltons & Morse and then with Eversheds, before joining Wortley Byers Law. I specialise in corporate and commercial and taxation matters. In 1999 I became an Associate of the Chartered Institute of Taxation and was a Partner at Wortley Byers Law between February 2008 and March 2013 before moving to a consultancy role in April 2013.
