Start a Side Business Not a Side Hustle

I was on the search for something. 

A group for guys where you could develop friendships, learn from one another, help each other. 

A group where people could share their dreams and put actual action behind them. 

A group where experts from all sorts of fields came together to educate and learn from one another. 

And most importantly, a replacement of traditional networking, where true friendships were made. 

Oh yeah, and by the way the group wasn't stuffy, it was filled with fun and social events. 

There was one little problem in my search though....I couldn't find it.

So, I decided to build it.  

If this sounds like what you have been missing, we invite you to apply on my profile, it will be a decision you'll never forget.

Bartons Solicitors

Marine Litigation Solicitor Advocate.

My workload is broad, with approximately 80% dedicated to marine related litigation. 

Covering all aspects of the marine world from loss of life and personal injury in the fishing community, to contractual disputes and collisions in the pleasure and commercial sector. I advise insurers in respect of subrogated claims in these areas as well as individual vessel owners. 

Much of my work is international and I have a specific focus on regulatory aspects of the British, Channel and other European zones; I receive instructions from fishing communities both domestic and abroad from single vessel owners to fleets. 

I represent clients in respect of civil claims and criminal defence, liability and regulatory offences concerning government agencies such as Defra, MMO, MCA, HSE, and EA.

I also deal with an array of other matters pertaining to boats, vessels and gear throughout the maritime industry and various contentious matters that may arise. 

The final part of my marine remit involves (usually) defending clients in respect of HSE investigations resulting from fatalities or serious injury; usually in a commercial fishing context but roughly half of this work relates to companies, commercial organisations and individual owners. I have a strong interest in defence work in respect of Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide.

I continue to advise on employment issues for firms, companies and individuals. I also advise corporate clients in respect of Environment Agency prosecutions. I  continue to advise clients in respect of high value commercial property disputes assisting our litigation department.

Hi! Thanks for looking at my profile.😀

I talk about things not many people like to talk about.

I believe the world of work benefits from authenticity, honesty and integrity. 

I have seen and experienced a wide variety of people, behaviours, skills and mistakes in my 20+ years of working life throughout more than 25 jobs. 

Now, aside from my normal job, I talk about these things and try to highlight the good and the bad, with my particular style of writing. 

I’m a “Yellow” - ie a high energy, personable, gregarious individual. I have a compassionate, driven growth mindset. I love working with people, in teams and providing great service to my clients.

I may not be a genius, but I am likely the most consistent and approachable person you’ll meet today.

I have a beautiful 7 year old daughter, a wonderful partner, two rescue kittens and about 13 surfboards 😅
