Before becoming an MP, Michael was on the Attorney General’s Regional Panel and undertook civil work, both advocacy and advisory, for all Government departments.
Michael's practice continues to encompass a broad range of civil work, acting for both claimants and defendants, notably commercial and contract law, property and chancery cases and public law and regulatory. He also practises as a qualified mediator for any civil dispute cases.
Michael has appeared in courts up to and including the Court of Appeal, helping individuals, businesses, charities and Local Authorities.
