About
Last Updated: 5 July 2025
I provide discreet, practical support to individuals and businesses navigating complex legal and formal situations. This work sits in the space before litigation, helping you get organised, prepared, and clear before you need to instruct a solicitor, or supporting you while you work alongside legal professionals.
Background
My approach adds attention to detail to an understanding that legal processes can be overwhelming, especially when emotions are running high or when technical complexity obscures the essential issues.
I work with people facing family disputes, business breakdowns, tenancy issues, and other situations where clear thinking, structured documentation, and measured communication can make the difference between escalation and resolution.
This is not legal advice. I don't replace solicitors or barristers, though I often work in concert with them. I help ensure you're organised, understood, and ready to use your legal support effectively when the time comes.
How I Work
Every engagement is handled with complete discretion. I use end-to-end encryption for file transfers, zero-knowledge storage systems, and can work entirely offline when required. Your material is never fed into AI systems or shared in any form without your explicit consent.
The work might involve drafting correspondence, reviewing agreements, preparing financial disclosure, organising case material, or helping you respond to complex or emotionally charged situations with clarity and calm.
Business Relationships and Contracts
Much of my work involves helping people understand and improve their working relationships and contractual arrangements. This includes supporting business owners in clarifying employment situations that have evolved informally, reviewing contracts before they're signed, and helping tailor legal agreements to fit the practical realities of how businesses actually operate.
I work regularly with creative industry professionals, particularly in film and television, where payment disputes and unfair contract terms are unfortunately common. I also help commercial companies ensure their contracts reflect their actual business risks and operational needs, rather than just legal compliance.
The focus is always on bringing clarity and structure in a way that protects clients' interests while avoiding unnecessary conflict or escalation.
Who I Work With
My clients include private individuals facing personal legal challenges, business owners dealing with commercial disputes, creative professionals navigating contractual issues, and professionals who need sensitive material organised for their legal teams.
What unites them is a need for privacy, clarity, and practical support during challenging times, and an understanding that good preparation and clear thinking can save both time and money when formal legal action becomes necessary.
If you're dealing with something complex or sensitive and need strategy and understanding to review, prepare, or protect your position effectively, I'd be happy to discuss how I might help.
