Having spent over 20 years in chambers, Adam has built a successful career around delivering a professional, efficient, and approachable clerking service. The majority of Adam’s experience has been dedicated to managing the Family diary, where he has developed strong relationships with barristers, solicitors, and court users, ensuring the smooth day-to-day running of a busy practice.

Alongside his work in Family, Adam has also gained valuable experience clerking Criminal and Personal Injury work, providing him with a broad understanding of different practice areas and their varying demands.

Adam prides himself on being organised, reliable, and accessible, and he enjoys working closely with clients and colleagues to provide practical solutions and maintain a consistently high standard of service.

Outside of chambers, Adam is a proud father of two and has a passion for grassroots football. He serves as both a football coach and Chairman of his local club, roles that he finds incredibly rewarding and which reflect his commitment to teamwork, leadership, and supporting others. When he is not working or involved in football, Adam enjoys spending time by the water fishing and following Aston Villa, where he has been a loyal season ticket holder for many years.
