"I am a corporate lawyer with an interest in assisting clients, in particular owner-managed businesses, on company mergers, acquisitions and disposals.”

I am an associate in the corporate team, having joined Higgs as a trainee solicitor in September 2021. Prior to joining Higgs, I worked as a paralegal for a big four firm. During my training contract I undertook seats in commercial property, corporate and insolvency & restructuring.

I have been a part of the corporate law team for around 18 months, assisting and advising on all aspects of a corporate transaction including, heads of terms, due diligence, disclosure, share/asset purchase agreements, contribution agreements and the completion process.

I primarily act for owner-managed businesses, in a range of sectors and with differing levels of turnover.

I am a member of the charity committee, recently taking part in the 10k Wolf Run and regularly helping out at my local food bank.

  • Acted for a corporate client on a string of asset and share acquisitions over the course of 3-4 months. They were fast paced deals, medium-sized and the drafting was particularly tailored in some areas due to the nature of the businesses.
  • Assisted on a share acquisition worth c.£34m in value. An extensive due diligence process was carried out on each of the five group companies as part of the transaction process to get our client comfortable with what they were purchasing.
  • Acted for a small local café on the sale of the business and certain assets. I prepared the initial draft business purchase agreement, any relevant ancillary documents and helped to guide the client through the transaction process from beginning to completion.
