My Professional Background

I joined Attwaters in July 2022. I specialise in Residential Conveyancing, dealing with purchases, sales, re-mortgages, transfer of equity, shared ownership, and new build transactions. I graduated from the University of Westminster in 2014. My first legal job was in a boutique firm in Hendon, where I was an apprentice and a paralegal whilst doing the LPC. I then joined Cavendish Legal Group in March 2016 and started my training contract in October 2016. I qualified as a Solicitor in October 2018 before joining Layzells Solicitors in October 2019. I then joined RHJ Devonshire Solicitors in August 2020. What I enjoy most about my role is ensuring any issues are dealt with promptly and efficiently to allow people to buy their dream houses.

About me

I was born and raised in Hackney before moving to Walthamstow in 2008, where I have lived since. I am married with a baby boy! My favourite food and drink have to be pizza and Lucozade – although not together, obviously! A nice cold Lucozade on a hot day is the best.

I enjoy football and gaming. Anything sport related generally piques my interest. Like every boy, football was always a dream job. However, as I got older, I wanted to become an architect or accountant – big change, I know! I used to be scared of animals and insects, especially lizards and spiders. I have slightly grown out of that, I think! My ideal desert island companions would be my family.
