He was Member of Parliament for Scarborough from 1692 to 1695 (when he was expelled for receiving a bribe), 1702 to 1705, and from 1707 until his death. He was legal counsel for the East India Company, and also defended several of those accused of being Jacobites in the years following the Rebellion of 1715.
