Reflections

I find serious medical treatment cases fascinating. They always involve really sensitive and important issues. It’s incredibly rewarding being able to help people at their greatest time of need.

I enjoy inquests law – whether you’re acting for the family or the authority coming under scrutiny, you’re playing a key part in giving someone closure after the loss of a loved one.
