Why choose Adaptable Legal Counsel?
When you partner with Adaptable Legal Counsel, you’re choosing a service built on hands-on, in-house legal experience across diverse areas of commercial law. I’m a qualified commercial solicitor with over five years in in-house roles, offering flexible, practical legal support to fit your business needs.
I qualified in July 2022 after training at Panasonic, where I gained a broad skill set across various legal areas. My role included overseeing consumer disputes, guiding customer services on consumer law and product safety, and acting as the main point of contact for escalations. I worked on matters encompassing everything from drafting and negotiating commercial agreements to advising the UK board, supporting marketing on promotions, and leading compliance programs with training delivery across the UK.
Following Panasonic, I joined RX Global (part of the FTSE 100 RELX Group), where I focused on large scale supplier and customer contract drafting, risk assessing and advising on large value contracts to all stakeholders within the business including key stakeholders and a variety of commercial matters, and ensuring legal documentation was up to date and updated to manage new legal risks. I also managed IP infringement cases, headed up the legal support for the operational teams putting on events including a large-scale supplier contracting process, which included overseeing junior team members, and ensuring efficient delivery of the service. My experience spans everything from managing IP protection to providing ad hoc legal support to sales and key stakeholders.
With Adaptable Legal Counsel, you get direct access to this depth of experience with the flexibility to suit your business’s unique demands.
