Position

I'm an associate in the Public Law team. I specialise in various aspects of health and social care law, in particular Court of Protection health and welfare law.

In the majority of my cases, I represent vulnerable adults in cases where life changing decisions are being made by the court. Such decisions include where a person should live, the care they should receive, and their contact with other people. More often than not, this involves deprivation of liberty.
