About

Practice Areas

Ruth is a highly experienced and well respected Family Lawyer.

She is a member of the Family Law Association and is regularly involved in complex Family Law cases, often with an international element. She is accredited by the Law Society of Scotland as a Specialist in both Family Law and Child Law and is also recognised as a 'Recommended Lawyer' in the Legal 500. Ruth is regularly appointed by the local Court as a Child Welfare Reporter, as a Curator ad Litem, as well as a Safeguarder to vulnerable adults.

Ruth works with her clients to find solutions that work for them and their families, and will often recommend using different resolution methods, including mediation and collaborative practice (Ruth is trained as a Collaborative Lawyer, and is the Chair of the Tayside pod of Consensus Collaboration Scotland, the organisation that promotes collaborative practice in Scotland). Family law disputes can often be difficult and highly emotive, and she is committed to dealing with these cases sensitively, yet tenaciously where appropriate.

Ruth's practice includes financial provision cases, prenuptial and cohabitation agreements, as well as child law matters, including contact, residence, relocation, adoption and permanence cases. Court is also a familiar territory for Ruth – she has experience of presenting cases at Sheriff Court, Outer and Inner House through to the UK Supreme Court – and she often appears on behalf of clients in contested hearings, presenting their case both effectively and respectfully.
