John works with clients to create solutions that are in the clients and their family's best interests. He recognises that there is more to family work than just the legal aspects, and assists the clients to deal with and address both the emotional and legal challenges created by family breakdown. Whether acting in the traditional or the collaborative role, he believes that clients and their representatives will achieve greater progress and better outcomes by attacking the problems rather than each other.

John is a specialist family lawyer, being a Resolution Accredited Specialist, a trained Collaborative Lawyer and a member of the International Academy of Collaborative Practitioners.

John qualified as a solicitor in 1985 and is the head of the family team at Thomson & Bancks.
