Expertise

I have a vast amount of expertise in all areas of compliance, such as AML compliance, regulatory compliance, data protection, and risk management. 

Given my extensive compliance experience, I’m Chair of the Law Society’s Money Laundering Task Force, where I represent the Solicitors profession at Government and in Europe, and I regularly speak for the Law Society, the ILFM as well as local Law Societies.

I’m the author of ‘Solicitors and Money Laundering and Compliance That Works’ which was published in Autumn 2022. I’m also the author of the Law Society’s Anti-Bribery Toolkit and their Anti-Money Laundering Training courses. 

Career highlights

I’m extremely passionate about the work I do, and love getting law firms on the right track, ensuring that the firm, its lawyers, and their clients are safe. I therefore have many career highlights relating the work I’ve done with my clients. 

However, one of my greatest achievements is building my team of experts. Between them, they have over one hundred years’ worth of experience, so they’re able to anticipate issues before they arise and provide robust strategies that work.
