Profile
I am a Partner at Dentons in the Sydney Dispute Resolution team. I have over 20 years’ experience acting for clients in disputes in a number of industries including banking and financial services, property, insurance and government. My experience includes a broad range of commercial contractual disputes, property and leasing disputes, misleading and deceptive conduct and unconscionable conduct claims, breach of director duties, negligence, an ICAC inquiry and dealing with regulatory bodies such as ASIC.
I am actively engaged in both formal and informal alternative dispute resolution on behalf of my clients. I have been accredited as a mediator with LEADR and I am a professional member of the Resolution Institute. My many years of experience in providing dispute resolution services to the corporate sector, as well as my management qualifications means I am commercially orientated and acutely aware of clients’ commercial imperatives, as well as the need to effectively manage risk. I believe in the importance of relationship for building trust and confidence. My priority is always to resolve a dispute as quickly as possible and on terms the disputing parties can live with, so they can return to doing what they do best . Also where possible, to preserve any ongoing relationship between the parties.
