What I do

I am based in our Derby office, having rejoined Smith Partnership after previously working in the Burton Upon Trent office, bringing with me strong local knowledge and expertise. I started working in Property in 2006 and qualified in January 2012.

I specialise in Commercial Property matters.  I have acted for a wide range of clients, including landlords, tenants, developers, business owners and individuals. 

My work includes:

  • Acting for Landlords and Tenants in the grant of new commercial leases, business lease renewals and assignments of leases;
  • Acting in the acquisition and disposal of commercial units, residential development land and commercial finance;
  • Acting in the refinancing of both residential and commercial property portfolios;
  • Acting in pension fund acquisitions and disposals;
  • Acting for buyers and sellers in asset sales and purchases of businesses;

I also have a strong background in residential conveyancing, having acted for buyers and sellers in a wide range of transactions, including sales and purchases of registered and unregistered property, probate sales, transfers of equity and remortgages.

I am friendly and approachable and always happy to help.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my young family and travelling.
