I have 30 years of experience and specialize in the field of Old English laws, with specific knowledge of paleography, linguistics and injury tariffs. I have 30 years of experience doing research and scholarly writing on the Old English laws. My greatest expertise is on the royal codes issued under kings dating from the early 7th century through the Norman Conquest. I was the first to publish on topics such as the manuscript contexts of the laws, their treatment of women, and their specialized use of vocabulary and legal formulae.
