Mike is Turners' Managing Partner.

He graduated with an Honours degree in Law and Economics in 1979 and was admitted as a Solicitor in 1983. Mike has been with Turners since 1986, when he joined as a Criminal Advocate and General Litigation Solicitor.

For a number of years Mike specialised in Personal Injury, Clinical Negligence and Professional Negligence Litigation but after becoming Managing Partner he reduced his litigation case load to accommodate the varied needs of this role. Mike then found his litigious background allowed him to bring to the field of Commerce the benefit of hindsight and has since undertaken work of a more commercial nature including Company sales, Management Buyouts and Copyright and Patent work. Mike still advises on litigious disputes and will also advise on other contractual matters, recently advising a client on the acquisition of a new private jet aircraft purchase completing November 2008. 

Mike also undertakes applications for premises licenses under the 2003 Licensing Act.
 
Mike is married with five children, enjoys playing Golf (badly) and over indulging!
