I am a Family Law Barrister who will work alongside you to achieve the best outcome for your family, in your circumstances. I take a practical and down to earth approach in my dealings with clients and I understand the stress associated with family disputes. I am approachable and will provide sensible advice and services to achieve the outcome you are seeking. I use plain language and will always explain the law and its processes to you in a way that you can understand. I am also a lawyer appointed by the Family Court to act as Lawyer for Child.

I am upfront about legal costs and will openly discuss these with you throughout our professional relationship. I am a Legal Aid provider as well as a Family Legal Assistance Scheme provider.

I am a parent and a grandmother and have co-parented myself. I understand the challenges this poses but I also know that with the right attitudes and commitment, it can be done ...... and done well.
