“I completed my LLB (hons) degree in law at the University of Kent at Canterbury. I joined the firm as a trainee solicitor in 2005 and qualified as a solicitor in 2007. I continued to work for Martin Tolhurst Solicitors after I qualified.
I left Martin Tolhurst Solicitors in 2014 to work for another large regional firm, where I continued to develop my skills and technical knowledge. I acted for a number high net wealth individuals. I was promoted to associate solicitor and returned to Martin Tolhurst Solicitors in 2017.
Since I qualified as a solicitor, I have focused solely in the area of private client and I am committed to offering clients a clear, friendly and professional service. No two clients have the same set of circumstances and I like to tailor my advice specifically to clients’ circumstances, so they are able to make an informed decision on how they wish to proceed.
Outside the office I am a governor of King’s School Rochester and I enjoy socialising with my friends and family.”
I have always had a keen interest in cars, so I would probably pursue a career as an automotive engineer.
