Profile
Prior to his call to the Bar, Michael worked in finance for five years and then qualified as a commercial solicitor specialising in intellectual property law. Michael transferred to the family Bar in 1998 and practices a wide range of family work including financial remedy cases, trusts and cohabitation disputes and Children Act matters, together with associated civil disputes. Within his financial remedy work, which is the principal area of his practice, he represents HNW and UHNW individuals, specialising in cases which have particular complexities including trusts, bankruptcy, partnerships, nuptial agreements, companies and interveners. He appears regularly at both first instance and appellate Courts and was appointed Queen's Counsel in 2018 in recognition of his talents.
Michael is able to accept instructions on a direct access basis and he regularly gives lectures in relation to recent case law developments.
