Inspired to write
“As a young professional, I was incredibly fortunate to be inspired and guided into tax and legal writing by Mr. Les Szekely, who was a tax partner at the time. Working under his mentorship, I developed a deep passion for simplifying complex legal concepts.”
Transforming law into actionable strategies
“My focus has always been on practical implementation: How can we apply these insights in a way that truly benefits clients, not just describe the law so that it remains jargon for our clients.”
“During my university law teaching career I also focussed on simplifying difficult concepts and show students practical uses. “
