I can draft, review and negotiate a wide range of agreements from a single page NDA to more complex agreements such as supplier agreements, shareholders' agreements and services agreement, just to name a few. I am happy to negotiate reduced rates for regular clients as well as a cap for particular projects.

    I received a commendation for my Postgraduate Diploma in Law from the College of Law in London and a Very Competent result for the Bar Vocational Course at BPP Law School, also in London. I was called to the Bar at Lincoln's Inn in 2006. I am a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker with a 1st class UK equivalent degree in English and Portuguese from Brazil.

    My aim is to provide my clients with timely and concise advice in a friendly, professional and efficient manner. I am flexible about payment terms and I am happy to work on an on-going or one-off basis.

    *Please note:
    I am qualified as a barrister but after being called to the Bar, I didn't go into practice and instead took up a position as in-house counsel for an IT company where I found my niche as a contracts' lawyer. As result of not going into practice, I do not have a practising certificate and am not on the register of practising barristers. Therefore, in providing legal services I am not subject to many of the rules which regulate practising barristers. I am allowed to provide legal advice and represent you before certain tribunals but I cannot represent you in court. I aim to provide a good service and if there are any concerns about what I do, please let me know and I will try to resolve the problem. You should know that the Legal Ombudsman, who can adjudicate on complaints about poor service by practising barristers, cannot consider any complaint against me. However, if I cannot resolve your concerns, you can complain to the Bar Standards Board and it will investigate whether I have failed to comply with any rules which apply to me. I carry full Professional Liability Insurance in respect of legal services I provide under English Law. If you have any questions about my status please do not hesitate to contact me.

      My primary task of having a letter sent for negotiation with lender did not happen as requested, therefore not happy

      Ray, I understand your disappointment but it would not be professionally or ethically acceptable for me to write the letter in question for the reasons I made clear to you. I believe however that I provided you with sound advice in respect of your case and I truly hope that despite all the odds against you that you are able to reach a reasonable compromise with the other party in the future.
