I am a Solicitor specialising in the Crime Department at Duncan Lewis Solicitors, where I handle various responsibilities, particularly in the areas of Public Law and Criminal Litigation. In my role within Public Law, I had the privilege of being part of the dedicated team working on the Grenfell Tower Inquiry. This involved a comprehensive examination of the events leading up to and surrounding the tragic fire at Grenfell Tower. Through my involvement, I gained extensive knowledge of the intricate technical framework pertaining to building regulations, Fire Safety and the implementation of relevant guidance. I am currently engaged in the Covid-19 inquiry.
Within Criminal Litigation, I have had the opportunity to work on notable cases, including the high-profile burglary at the residence of Tamara Ecclestone, daughter of ex-Formula 1 chief Bernie Ecclestone. This incident stands out as one of the most significant domestic burglaries in the history of English law, primarily due to the substantial value of the stolen items.
Prior to my legal career, I gained valuable experience in the aviation industry, ocean freight logistics and the global offshore market, working in these fields for a duration of 12 years. This diverse background has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of the intricacies within these sectors, including import/export operations.
I hold accreditation in representing clients in Police Stations and I advocate for them both in these settings and in Magistrates' Courts for various legal matters. This encompasses a broad range of cases and ensures that I am well-versed in navigating the legal landscape across different judicial platforms.
Overall, my expertise as a Solicitor at Duncan Lewis Solicitors encompasses a broad range of legal areas, including Public Law and Criminal Litigation and is complemented by my prior professional experience in the aviation and logistics industries.
