Defending & Protecting Your Business

Richard is a partner and Shakespeare Martineau’s General Counsel.

As General Counsel and COLP, Richard is part of our Executive Team and leads our Risk Team. Richard’s responsibilities include business continuity, information security, risk management, regulatory compliance and legal advice for our firm.

I believe that excellent compliance and risk management is crucial for any business which wishes to thrive commercially. We must take care of our clients, our reputations, our people and strive for the highest standards when dealing with others, our communities and our environment.
