Daisy has recent experience of fraud cases, including alleged oral contract disputes, fraudulent misrepresentations, conspiracy, as well as cases involving allegations of dishonesty.

Daisy is well-placed to assist in such situations and has a reliable network of specialists who can assist promptly. 

Daisy acts on financial mis-selling cases which involve both the UK and offshore regulatory regimes. She also advises on contractual disputes of a broad and varied nature.

Me in a minute

Litigation is a deeply personal, high-stakes, and complicated process

I have always loved analysing complex factual matrixes and considering their application in the context of relevant case law, statutes, and/or regulations. No one dispute is the same and each presents an exciting new opportunity to engage in legal analysis whilst putting the client's interests at the very core. I enjoy understanding a client's aims and working with them to achieve these objectives. 

Litigation is a deeply personal, high-stakes, and complicated process. My aim is always to provide tailored and practical advice, and to act as a trusted advisor to help guide clients throughout any dispute. I seek to achieve this by being enthusiastic, sympathetic, and commercial.
