Hello, I'm Phil.
I am an #ActuallyAutistic (and #ProbablyADHD) aspiring lawyer, content creator, writer, speaker, and workplace neurodiversity inclusion consultant.
I love to talk about and engage in all things law and the legal sphere, particularly around Employment law, disability inclusion, autism, ADHD, and wider neurodiversity including meaningful inclusion in workplaces and learning how other neurodivergents can leverage their own strengths and abilities to make work and life work for them and for us all!
Over the last 5 years, I have gained experience and expertise in a range of practice areas including Employment law, Commercial Property, Debt Recovery, Corporate law and Litigation, and developed my skills in drafting documents and agreements, research, giving commercial advice, clear communication, and community building in the legal community.
I write articles and blogs and create content for my own platform The Neurodivergent Lawyer, for LawCareers.net, and for anyone else who wants to hear from me and share my experiences and my knowledge around law and neurodivergence.
In 2022 I worked with a handful of public organisations and institutions to assess their face-to-face and virtual interview and application processes and recommend things they can do to make these processes more inclusive of neurodivergent staff, clients and members of the public. The delegates and representatives from these organisations came away with a greater understanding of the autistic and neurodivergent experience and have been implementing my recommendations for the benefit of their staff, clients and the wider public.
