About Melissa

I am a solicitor working in England and Wales. I help businesses and private individuals to resolve and manage their disputes.

At work I deal with most types of civil disputes including contractual disputes, professional negligence claims and company disputes. I also represent professional clients being investigated by their disciplinary body.  My other legal interests (but not stuff I advise on at work) include access to justice,  legal ethics and civil liberties.

This blog consists of my own views and opinions. If you need legal advice, you should visit a solicitor and discuss your case with them.  The Law Society holds a list of all solicitors in England and Wales.

Please do not rely on this blog as a substitute for legal advice.  I cannot give any legal advice on this blog.  If you want to instruct me, you can do so via my firm.  I am a partner and the Head of Commercial Litigation at HM3 Legal which is regulated by the SRA. You can find out how to instruct me here.
