About Me

I am the founder and Chief Exec of Carbon Law Partners. Carbon is a platform that provides support to professional services firms. Our own brand law firm, Carbon Law Partners, operates using the Carbon platform and is a commercial and private client law firm being built by clients for clients. 

My background is in changing and developing professional services businesses, but I am a City lawyer by trade. This has given me a unique insight into what businesses want from professional services from the perspective of being both a lawyer and a client. I understand the limitations of traditional law firms and the type of support that businesses need. The market for professional advice needs to change and is changing. So we created Carbon.

Carbon's mission is to "create and develop the conditions for exceptional people to flourish" - that's our why! We do that by aspiring to our 3 values - to be astute candid and enterprising.  We live by our four beliefs - quality for our clients, an ownership stake for our people, freedom and value in retirement for our lawyers and an ongoing passion for developing.  Each day we live by 7 qualities that inspire us all.  You can find out more at www.flourishwithcarbon.com
