Who do I work for?

I represent a wide range of clients in family law proceedings, including mothers and fathers involved in private law children disputes, whether as resident or non-resident parents, as well as grandparents and step-parents involved in child arrangements or private adoption matters. I also act for husbands and wives in financial remedy proceedings, and regularly represent both victims of domestic abuse and respondents to allegations of domestic abuse.
