About

Nineteen years in law, seen from every side of the table.

In-house leading risk and compliance, in private practice, and as a consultant. This page is the why; the services page is the what.

Three seats at the same table

Nineteen years in law, seen from every side: in-house leading risk and compliance, in private practice, and as a consultant. That means the advice already knows how a firm actually works, how boards decide, how fee earners react, and which battles are worth picking.

The approach

Start with the destination

Some firms want good enough. Some want exemplary. Both are fine, but the advice only fits if we're honest about which one you are and where you're trying to get to.

The style

Speaking knowledge to power

Straight answers in plain English, kindly delivered. I bring the knowledge; your firm holds the vote.

The promise

Capability, not dependency

The job is to get you in better shape, more confident and ready for the next step, not to make myself indispensable. I do the heavy lifting where you lack the resource, and hand you the controls as we go.

And one more thing: you deal with me, you scope with me, you get me. Only me. No handoffs to a junior you have never met.

How I work

Deliberately small, deliberately careful. No more than two audits a month, a handful of retained clients, and every engagement scoped in writing before it starts. Quality over volume, every time. Working with firms across England, Wales and Scotland, in person and remotely.
