I have been with the firm since 2016 when I stared as a legal intern, progressed to a paralegal role and then formal training to become a Solicitor. I qualified as a Solicitor in December 2022.

I represent clients in child care law, including public law children proceedings, private law children proceedings as well as cases involving domestic abuse and obtaining and defending injunctions. I deal with cases involving complex issues such as mental illness, substance and alcohol misuse and child neglect. I represent clients both, in court and in the pre-proceedings process.
