My role
I am a solicitor in the regulatory team, assisting client with health and safety advice, inquest proceedings, criminal investigations and regulatory matters involving CQC, HSE and Ofsted. Predominantly I advise clients in health and social care, housing and education sectors.
My experience
I completed my training contract at Anthony Collins before joining the regulatory team in March 2023. During my training contract, I gained experience in the following sectors: governance and commercial, traditional private client and court of protection, employment and pensions and regulatory teams. Prior to my training contract, I worked for a local authorities legal team where I supported the education sector with regulatory matters.
