Adam is a Senior Associate in the Immigration team, advising businesses and private clients on complex UK immigration and British nationality matters.

Adam helps businesses attract and retain international talent through strategic advice on sponsor licences, Skilled Worker sponsorship and wider immigration planning. He also delivers sponsor compliance training, advises on Right to Work policies and processes, and supports employers preparing for Home Office compliance audits. He has extensive experience advising businesses in the video games, technology, hospitality, and financial services sectors.

He advises high net worth individuals, entrepreneurs, and innovators throughout the UK immigration process, identifying potential issues at an early stage and developing practical solutions to support their personal and business objectives. His experience includes complex spousal/partner visa advice, Global Talent endorsement across a range of sectors, and EU Settlement Scheme advice for mobile international families.

British citizenship and nationality matters form the third facet of Adam’s practice. This includes naturalisation for clients who have settled in the UK, including those with significant absences from the UK. He also advises on the registration of children as British citizens and has experience navigating the deeply complex area of adult registration in situations of historic unfairness.

Adam joined the firm as a Senior Associate in August 2026. He qualified as a solicitor in 2018, and has since built his practice at firms renowned for their work with private wealth, entrepreneurial businesses, and international clients.

Adam studied Law at Durham University and spent two years living and working in Japan on the JET Programme, an experience that gave him a valuable international perspective on global mobility and cross-border matters.

Adam is a member of the Immigration Law Practitioners’ Association (ILPA) and the International Association of Young Lawyers (AIJA). He regularly attends and speaks at AIJA conferences and has written on UK immigration issues for Personnel Today.
