What is your favourite memory from your time with us?

The Refectory at the College and the pub in Christleton that ran a slate for the students.

Share a piece of advice from a lecturer or classmate that has stayed with you?

Make a revision timetable or it won’t work!

What has been the best development in your field since you qualified?

Access to legal resources online... No more lugging around a tonne weight of law books!

If you could bring in one new piece of legislation in your sector, what would it be and why?

A newer Companies Act more tailored to the world we now live in.

What advice would you give to someone starting the course you studied?

Impossible to answer since it now only exists in different iterations!

How did your course prepare you for your career?

It was much more academically based in those days... so not so much practically speaking but from a knowledge of law viewpoint very well!

Tell us something people may be surprised to know about you...

My daughter has also followed me into Law and is also a solicitor and now works as my associate.
