Why A Career In Law?
John originally planned on being a linguist but then decided on law: “I chose family law as I like dealing with people and helping them get through difficult times.”
Supporting Clients
John appreciates the importance of fully understanding client needs from the outset, to allow him to provide the most appropriate support.
“I get to know clients at face-to-face meetings at an early stage and make sure I get to know what is important to them . I make a special effort to listen to them effectively throughout the case, so they feel heard and supported.”
Why Dutton Gregory?
John chooses to work for Dutton Gregory because of our ambitions for future growth and our supportive culture.
“I like the fact that this is a progressive firm, keen on some expansion, but not becoming a corporate entity.”
