Based in Edinburgh, Trevor is triple-qualified as a solicitor in Scotland, England & Wales, and British Columbia (non-practising status). He is also a Law Society of Scotland Certified Specialist in Cyber Security, and has the data protection certifications CIPP/E and CIPM.

With over 17 years’ experience both in-house and in private practice, Trevor advises clients on data protection and privacy (especially GDPR and PECR), commercial contracts, small business acquisitions, and freedom of information.

Trevor has a keen practical understanding of small and medium-sized businesses: two terms as a non-executive director with Modo (Vancouver’s car-sharing cooperative), almost five years as head of an in-house legal team at a rapidly-growing Scottish multinational, and almost five more building his own Scottish legal practice before joining Shakespeare Martineau.

Clients value the way he combines a no-nonsense, plain-English advice with a collaborative approach to negotiating deals that work for all parties.

That contract you asked for describes your business, not mine. I need to draft it so you can understand it.

I am based in our Scotland Office
