Michael Parker

My underlying ethos is always to remember first and foremost that we are a service industry, and to understand and empathise with the clients’ needs whilst giving practical and professional advice. At the same time, accessibility and responsiveness are key. With my colleagues, my door is always open, either actually or virtually. Any support and mentoring I can give are freely given and I’m particularly motivated by helping to bring the strands of an international business together.

After a career as a Solicitor specialising in cross-border disputes, Michael is Spencer West’s International Business Director and a member of the Firm’s Management Committee. In his role, Michael helps in driving the international growth of the Firm’s business through Europe, Asia, Africa, the USA, the Americas and APAC, recruiting top quality practitioners and connecting colleagues throughout Spencer West’s collaborative network of offices.
