I was admitted as a solicitor of the Supreme Court of NSW in June 1977 and have been practising as a Solicitor in NSW continually ever since.
In 2002, I obtained Specialist Accreditation from the Law Society of New South Wales in Commercial Litigation and Building & Construction Law. This extensive expertise and specialised knowledge is applied to every legal matter my firm handles, the benefits of which are regularly passed on to our clients through successful litigation outcomes in Local, District and Supreme Court matters, Conveyancing, Property Law, Commercial and Retail Leases, Commercial Law, Debt Recovery and Estate Planning.
Our Commercial Litigation team has had successful results in both the Supreme Court and Court of Appeal. I act for a number of business and commercial clients in the drafting and preparation of various agreements. I have found that my expertise in Commercial Litigation is an effective preventative measure in keeping my clients out of future court battles. The written agreements which I draft for my clients reflect this experience, covering the range of possible contingencies which could arise and often avoiding future disputes.
I have seen many changes in the practice of law over the last forty years and feel that, in order to provide an effective legal service, it is necessary to adapt to these changes and be willing, at times, to go through a process of re-invention. With the assistance of my younger colleagues, our practice is committed to keeping abreast of contemporary legal challenges and providing clients with the most up-to-date and effective legal advice possible. I feel that this commitment places us at the forefront of our field.
