I enjoy trying to find a practical and meaningful solution to some very difficult and emotive situations.

It is a great challenge dealing with new business sectors or personal circumstances every day but it is one which makes this particular job so enjoyable. Litigation can be a great mix between academic debate and sporting competition.
