I know that being involved in court proceedings can be a stressful and challenging time for clients, so I take care to guide them through the process with clear and practical advice about what to expect at all times.

I have been practising law for over 30 years, the last 14 of which I have led the litigation team at Steindle Williams Legal, and as a result I bring extensive experience and strong expertise to a wide range of litigation matters.

In civil and commercial law my expertise includes commercial disputes, misrepresentation and other deceptive conduct, injunction proceedings, employment disputes, estate and trust claims, liquidations and bankruptcy proceedings, judicial review proceedings and weathertightness and construction proceedings. I also have extensive experience in alternative dispute resolution such as mediation and expert determination.

In criminal law matters, I regularly appear in a full range of criminal courts including the District Court, Youth Court, and High Court conducting criminal defence, including Crimes Act and Misuse of Drugs Act prosecutions, fraud and serious traffic matters. I also appear in the appellate jurisdiction in the High Court and Court of Appeal.
