Experience

I help landowning clients achieve the maximum compensation for their loss in a time-efficient fashion.

I help acquiring clients rebuff spurious claims and settle genuine claims appropriately.

I am able to meet with farmers/ land owners and empathise with their farming problems, discuss genuine difficulties that a scheme might present to them and assist in finding mitigation.
