I was called to the Bar in 1988 and took silk in 2018. I represented Andrew Malkinson in his landmark appeal in 2023 and have been heavily engaged in the Post Office Horizon IT Inquiry since then. I frequently appear before the Court of Appeal, acting for clients (represented previously by others) who have been convicted of serious sexual offences. I am known for my advocacy skills and powers of persuasion.
