How I Operate
This website is a platform for my professional services as a consultant criminal defence solicitor. I am not a law firm, a sole practice, or a legal entity. I do not operate a client account and am not authorised by the SRA to conduct litigation or manage client matters in my own name.
​
I provide my legal expertise and representation exclusively on a consultancy basis to established, fully-insured law firms in the North West of England that are authorised and regulated by the SRA.
Your Legal Relationship
Should you choose to instruct me:
-
Your case will be formally accepted and managed by one of my partner SRA-regulated firms.
-
You will receive a client care letter, terms of business, and all regulatory information directly from that law firm.
-
Your solicitor-client relationship and contract for legal services will be with that firm, not with me as an individual.
-
That firm's professional indemnity insurance will cover all work conducted on your case.
​
This operational model ensures that you receive the highest standard of legal expertise combined with the full regulatory protection, insurance, and administrative support of an established SRA-regulated practice.
​
For complete transparency, the specific firm that will handle your case will be identified and agreed with you at the earliest opportunity.
