I joined Irwin Mitchell as Partner to support the Regulatory & Compliance Group Team.  I have over 17 years’ legal experience (in private practice and in-house) in dispute resolution with a particular focus on regulatory and compliance when it comes to cannabis-related businesses as well as the Cryptoassets & Blockchain industry. 

I am regularly instructed by global cannabis companies in either the CBD wellness markets or medicinal cannabis sector (CBPMs).  These instructions range from advising on aspects of regulation in the UK, EU, Asia and beyond regarding the legality of vaping products (e-cigarettes and e-liquids); cosmetics; food products / supplements; and medicinal cannabis products.  I often advise clients looking to obtain a Home Office licence such as a controlled drugs licence or cultivation licence. 

I have also developed an interest and practice regarding cryptoassets, blockchain and Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). Often assisting as a trusted crypto lawyer, I have assisted businesses operating or wishing to operate in this ever-growing space, helping my clients navigate the complex and novel legal issues of digital assets whether it be a business looking to setup an exchange or issue a token.

Due to the nature of the above sectors and the legal nuances involved, I regularly work closely with other legal departments such as Corporate & Commercial, Employment and Dispute Resolution to ensure my clients benefit from a full suite of legal services specifically tailored to their immediate business needs and future objectives.

My in-house and international coverage makes me commercially incisive and instrumental to my clients when handling their legal and strategic requirements both in the UK and abroad.  I am regularly described by my clients as a pragmatic, strategic and solution-focused business partner.

Advising clients in respect of regulation in the UK, EU and abroad (over 30 countries covered).

Two weeks in and it's been a whirlwind at Irwin Mitchell !! 🚀

I'm thrilled to announce that Irwin Mitchell were able to provide Releaf  with #ReleafProtect, a legal helpline desk for their medical cannabis patients, offering 365 - 24/7 guidance and support. It's off to a flying start! 🙌

A big thank you to Tim Kirby and Rupa Shah of Releaf for entrusting #IrwinMitchell with this delicate but much needed support for legal medical cannabis patients across the UK.

None of this could have happened without Steven Beahan, Philip Somarakis, and their respective teams - huge thanks to them for their hard work and support! Exciting times ahead in the #medicinalcannabis sector!
