Practice Areas

I am a partner specialising in:

- divorce and separation matters;

- financial claims, including pension claims, claims for children, maintenance and property;

- enforcement proceedings;

- disputes relating to children;

- emergency injunctions;

- cohabitation/TOLATA claims;

- living together/cohabitation agreements; and

- separation agreements; and

- mediation.

I have experience dealing with matters that involve various corporate structures, trusts, pensions and investments.

I also act for parties who are joined to or intervene in financial remedy proceedings as a result of arguments about jointly owned assets or assets in which other parties hold a beneficial interest.

I frequently advise in relation to children disputes, including applications for child arrangements, specific issue orders, prohibited steps orders and enforcement of child arrangements.

I am a qualified mediator and am able to assist parties who wish to engage in mediation to resolve matters where appropriate (in respect of any family matters).

Examples of my experience include:

- advising in respect of divorce and financial matters involving numerous different pensions;

- advising in respect of financial settlements involving complex trust and company structures;

- acting for parties in contested court proceedings relating to property ownership, sale or transfer of jointly-owned properties and arguments in relation to beneficial ownership;

- acting for parents in contested court proceedings in relation to the return of children from elsewhere in the UK and the enforcement of a child arrangements order; and

- acting for interveners within financial remedy proceedings.

I am a member of Resolution. I believe in a non-confrontational and constructive approach to family matters and the avoidance of costly court proceedings where possible, including through mediation. I am confident in dealing with court proceedings where this is necessary, including representing clients at hearings as appropriate.

I have completed the Paragon Dragonfly training and I am a Dragonfly Champion.
