About

I have expertise in workplace privacy having practiced internationally as an employment lawyer prior to joining Lewis Silkin. I manage complicated employee data subject rights requests (DSARs) and support clients during UK and European regulatory investigations (such as ICO investigations and dawn raids). I am frequently asked to advise on UK and European employee monitoring rules.

I lead data protection support for Lewis Silkin's M&A practice providing fast paced and practical advice at all stages of a transaction lifecycle. I also run post-transaction remediation projects in respect of data protection warranties and undertakings.
