Ian graduated from Oxford University with a law degree in 1974 and subsequently qualified as a solicitor, later becoming a salaried partner in the firm with which he trained and then setting up his own solicitors’ practice. Although he is not now practising as a solicitor, he formed Pro-law in 2016 as a separate business offering “unreserved” legal services outside the structure of a regulated law firm. Ian has a passion for supporting younger people locally who wish to pursue a career in legal practice. Ian has also sat on the board for a number of charities.

In her spare time, she enjoys listening to podcasts, gaming, and exploring with her dog.
