EXPERTISE
I am a family law solicitor, with 15 years’ experience, helping individuals that face the legal complexities of divorce and separation. Whatever your situation, I can advise on the most appropriate options to help you achieve your objectives and guide you through the relevant legal processes.
Whenever possible, I encourage practical solutions so that matters can settle as quickly and cost-effectively as possible, while trying to preserve relationships between separated parents. I also have extensive court experience, in the event, this might be the only way to achieve your needs or a settlement.
I am particularly experienced in the needs of high-net-worth individuals with significant incomes or their own businesses.
I can guide parents on the law relating to children and have helped individuals in a wide range of sensitive situations, giving pragmatic and straightforward advice.
