Experience

After completing my training contract with Bates Wells, I joined the Corporate team as a Solicitor in September 2020.

My work to date has involved advising clients on a wide range of corporate matters, including mergers and acquisitions, corporate reorganisations and general corporate advisory work.

  • I assisted with advising the shareholders of a global electronic components distributor on the sale of the company’s entire issued share capital.
  • I have acted for banks on a range of matters, including an amendment and restatement of a facility agreement to enable security to be taken over replacement assets and a financing which involved taking security over a portfolio of freehold and leasehold properties.
  • I assisted with a client’s acquisition of a construction consultancy company, together with a number of its subsidiaries.
