I joined Bates Wells after working with a variety of non-profit and civil society organisations in India, Jamaica, the United States and the UK, and subsequently spending five years training and practicing as a banking solicitor at Linklaters.
As a solicitor in the Charity and Social Enterprise department at Bates Wells I combine my experience of working in-house with charities, and my skills as a finance lawyer, to advise on a broad range of activities carried out by charities and social enterprises. This includes advice relating to structuring and executing social impact finance transactions; charity formation, registration and governance; as well as a variety of general charity and commercial law issues.
I enjoy thinking about issues in an interdisciplinary way, trying to draw on best practices from law, policy, and development, and across multiple jurisdictions, to deliver sensible and holistic solutions for clients.
