With a deep understanding of relationship dynamics and a keen eye for detail, Sunny excels at anticipating the issues that impact the negotiation or the litigation of our clients’ matters in estates and trusts, fraud and asset recovery. He is adept at assessing situations from all angles and develops strategies to address our clients’ needs and, ultimately, protect their rights.

Sunny’s role is to support clients by providing informed legal knowledge and pragmatic solutions in an efficient and forthcoming way. He is able to demystify the complexities of the law to help clients set realistic expectations and understand all of their options, giving them a greater sense of confidence and control over the outcomes they pursue.

Before embarking on his vocation in law, Sunny enjoyed a successful career in journalism and public relations.
