Leading barrister in family and children’s law, expertise in handling complex cases within both Public and Private Law. She is highly approachable and specialises in cases involving intricate allegations, including matters of fabricated or induced illness, non-accidental injury, neglect, and physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. With an especially sensitive approach, regarded as a trusted advocate for vulnerable clients and has achieved notable success representing clients with learning disabilities.
In Private Law, I have developed a strong track record with cases involving multi-jurisdictional issues, such as international relocation disputes, intractable conflicts, and domestic violence matters. Additionally, as an approved Direct Access Family Barrister, I regularly accepts instructions directly from the public, providing clients with seamless access to specialised representation without the need for a solicitor, in accordance with the Bar’s public access rule.
