This can include investigations and enforcement, prosecutions, complaints and discipline, litigation, registration and accreditation. I also advise on governance issues and provide training to Councils, Boards, Committees and staff of public and regulatory bodies.

My team advises across sectors including telecoms, education, health and social care, professional services, aviation, betting and gaming and charities.
