His current role is as a Consultant for MCL, and Divisional Director for MCL’s parent company, RBC Brewin Dolphin, where his responsibilities include being actively involved with lawyers advising them how a divorce settlement (pertaining to pensions) may be best constructed to the benefit of their client.
