I studied Pharmacology at Newcastle University and then did a Law Conversion course at Northumbria University (2004-2005). Following that I completed the LPC at College of Law in York (2005-2006). Before I joined Birkett Long in September 2008 I trained with Stanley Tee.
I specialise in agricultural property dealing with sales, purchases and management of farms and estates. I advise on tenancy issues such as succession and retirement, preparing farm business tenancies, land registration at the Land Registry, re-financing, overage agreements, agri-environmental schemes and farm cottages etc.
I come from a farming background and am a fellow of the Agricultural Law Association. I also sit on the Essex Agricultural Society Council and on the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust committee for Essex. As well as being a member of Suffolk Agricultural Association, Country Land Association, Hadleigh Farmers’ Agricultural Association and Tendring Hundred Farmers Club.
