For the next few years Alan taught law at various colleges including Flintshire Technical College and Chester College. He completed his articles to qualify as a solicitor in 1977 and completed a master’s degree in law at Leicester University in 1983.

In 1986 Alan emigrated from the UK to Australia where he worked as a barrister and solicitor for several years as well as lecturing in law before returning to England in 1992.

Since then Alan has owned and worked in his own practice in the Chester area. He has built up a wealth of experience in all aspects of law and acquired an enviable reputation especially in the field of employment law.
