I am a commercial litigator with extensive experience of prosecuting and defending claims in the County Courts, High Court and Court of Appeal and acting on arbitrations conducted under the rules of the LCIA and ICC.
My particular areas of expertise involve shareholder disputes and advising in respect of issues arising following the acquisition or disposal of companies (including breach of warranty claims, completion accounts disputes and matters relating to disputed earn out provisions). I have also advised the parties to numerous breach of contract disputes with particular focus on clients in the hospitality, retail and manufacturing sectors.
I joined Higgs in early 2019 having spent 10 years working for a global law firm. Prior to that, I managed a jewellery retail business for six years. That experience informs my approach to advising clients as I recognise the importance of swiftly identifying commercial objectives and utilising legal tools to deliver those objectives in the most cost-efficient manner.
