I moved back to Yorkshire in 2021 after more than 20 years of legal practice as an employment lawyer in Manchester. I built my career in leading national and regional law firms — DLA Piper LLP, DAC Beachcroft LLP and Walker Morris LLP — before successfully building my own practice over 13 years within Gunnercooke LLP, a market ‘disruptor’, and Top 75 law firm in the UK.
Upon returning to my spiritual and family home, I chose to live and work right on the edge of the Yorkshire moors. Nature, and the sense of peace and calm it creates, became a guiding influence on my life.
By 2026 I had grown a fantastic remote-based team, with a successful flexible working culture, supporting clients throughout the UK. I was already ‘doing law on my terms’ — but I felt an innate drive to create a firm that reflected my values and those of my team.
Why Moor Edge?
My vision is to create a law firm that brings calmness, ease and solid ground to my team and our clients, and feels a bit like ‘coming home’. And so, with this vision firmly in mind, Moor Edge Law was born.

How we work
Here are our core values. They are at the heart of every relationship we build.
Making the complex simple
Employment law can feel like a maze, but it doesn’t have to. We demystify complex legal issues so you can understand the practicalities and your options. Our advice is clear, succinct and easy to follow.
By your side every step of the way
It’s important to us to work hand in hand with you. When things get difficult, you need someone in your corner who won’t flinch. We respond quickly, stay close, and carry the weight so you don’t have to. Being human isn’t a ‘nice-to-have’ for us — it’s the whole point of what we do.
Getting to the heart of matters
Every situation has layers, and we take the time to understand you properly — your business, the context, the people involved, and the outcome you really need. That curiosity and care is what lets us find solutions that genuinely fit. We balance our expertise with pragmatism to get you the best outcome.
