I qualified as a Solicitor in 2008 and as a Mediator in 2012.  I am committed to assisting clients in a constructive and non-confrontational way wherever possible to achieve the best outcomes, particularly where children are involved. 

I am aware that it is very stressful whenever a relationship breaks down and I will provide tailored and robust advice to navigate through the uncertainty and emotional challenges in a cost-effective way considering all options available and your desired outcome. I have a network of other professionals to call upon where needed to provide specific advice to deal with pensions and businesses or property.

I represent clients at all stages of the divorce and separation process and deal with obtaining financial remedy orders including negotiation and providing advice.  I also represent clients in relation to disputes involving their children, from providing constructive suggestions to representing at Court where necessary.

I am also able to advise on cohabitation agreements and pre-nuptial agreements.

As a qualified Mediator, I can also provide information on mediation and many other alternative dispute resolution options.

Outside work I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, cycling and walking in the New Forest where I live.  I enjoy sport and play netball and am involved with Sway Cricket Club.
