Biography
I’m a specialist Family Law solicitor, based in our Chichester and Gatwick offices. Having qualified in 2004, I've worked in Family Law for almost 18 years.
I practice exclusively in Family Law, focusing on helping people to deal with the events that occur following the breakdown of a family relationship, including:
- Divorce and financial matters
- Civil partnership and cohabitation
- Private law issues involving children.
I also advise people regarding the benefits of organising matters in advance with pre- and post-nuptial agreements while also assisting people seeking to challenge them.
As well as using my legal knowledge, I take a caring and compassionate approach to assisting people through what is often a difficult and emotional time for them. I tailor my approach to each individual person in order to achieve the best result possible for them.
What Inspired You To Get Into Law?
I wanted to do something that would be challenging but also rewarding. I want to see that I can make a difference.
What Is The Most Rewarding Aspect of your Role?
Resolving matters, achieving a fair outcome and seeing that I have helped someone through what is often one of the most challenging times of their life is very rewarding.
What Do You Like About Working At Irwin Mitchell?
Irwin Mitchell is a great place to work. I am part of an diverse and extensive national team which allows me to gain insight and input from some of the best lawyers in the country. This allows me to provide the Human Touch which is so important to Irwin Mitchell while ensuring that the client is provided with the best possible service.
What Do You Do Away From The Office?
I have three children and a Labrador so I enjoy spending a lot of my time outside walking. If I can find the time I also love losing myself in a good book!
