Andy is praised for his calm, unflappable approach and his easy nature with clients. He is described in the Legal 500 as “the name to note for TOLATA and Schedule 1 Children Act mandates”
“Family law is beset with high emotion. My clients come to me at what is often seen to be one of the most difficult points of their life. I strive to be myself; to cast away the notion of an unapproachable or ‘stuffy’ solicitor; and always to make myself available to my clients on a personal level, removing any judgment on their personal situation. Client care, pragmatism, and a personal touch are the keystones of my legal practice.”
