Area of Law

Family

I have a wealth of experience in all areas of family law. I specialise in financial remedies for divorcing spouses, including intricate asset division cases involving high net worth individuals, family businesses, TOLATA applications and trusts and pensions.

I am very aware of the process that my clients will be going through personally; in particular, in high conflict cases, and can provide advice and support in these scenarios, including interim remedies. Due to the complex nature of the assets involved in many of my cases, including business holdings and investments, my clients also frequently find my understanding of the more commercial aspects of legal work to be reassuring.

I am a clear thinker and bring an objective view to a case together with the attention to detail and communication skills needed to successfully represent my clients in and outside of court. I take a pragmatic approach and I am a skilled negotiator, often helping to avoid a protracted dispute and reach an agreement quickly.

When this is not possible, I have a proven track record of being a strong advocate in court, and I will fight my clients’ corner when necessary.

What sort of work do I do?

I exclusively practise in family law, with a specialism in financial remedy instructions.

The work I undertake includes:

- Divorcing spouses
- Acting for intervening parties
- Intricate asset division cases
- HNW individuals
