Position

I am a Managing Associate in the family team and I have a wide range of experience in all aspects of family law including nuptial agreements, divorce, finance and children proceedings.

As a family lawyer my role is to ensure that my clients get through often the most difficult times of their lives as smoothly as possible. It is very important to me that my clients feel supported and can rely on me to allay their worries and concerns in what is often a complex and challenging area of law. My job naturally involves engaging on a personal level and I thoroughly enjoy the variety that is entailed.

Career

I joined Cripps as a trainee solicitor in 2008 and qualified into the family team in October 2010.  I was promoted to Associate in May 2015, and to Managing Associate in May 2017.
