She has worked as a dedicated litigation solicitor since qualifying in 2016, with a particular interest and experience in commercial litigation.

Emily also has experience in judicial review, environmental health and safety, regulatory enforcement, gaming, education and disability discrimination within the service sector.

A large part of Emily's role is helping businesses like yours assess the merits of pursuing or defending a breach of contract claim, taking into account the existing business relationship or market pressures, and devising a strategy based on the bespoke needs of your business. Emily can also assist with reviewing your terms and conditions, or credit control procedures, to limit the number of claims, or the uncertainties, which might arise in same.

Emily has acted for a number of insurers, defending claims against the insurer for failure to pay out under the various policies, and also household insurance claims for personal injury amongst other claims.

With the disruption caused to the hospitality industry over the past few years Emily has been dealing more frequently with licensing queries and applications. The first phase of changes to the licencing laws have come into force, and Emily will keep a close eye on the implementation of this and will be available to guide and advise you as required.
