Prior to working in Litigation and Dispute Resolution, Luca worked in Conveyancing and gained a solid grounding in non-contentious land matters that has proved to be of great assistance to him when dealing with contentious land matters. Luca spent two years working and travelling in Australia, which allowed him to build a rapport with people from all walks of life. Out of the office Luca is always perfecting his pizza skills and he can be found exploring the Yorkshire Dales with his young family.
