Career History
I joined Neves in September 2018 as a trainee solicitor, qualified as a Family Law solicitor in December 2020, and was made Associate in April 2023.
I am on the board of Trustees for Relate MK (voluntary role) and am a member of the local Resolution Committee.
I am in the Legal 500 2024 edition. Being recommended by Legal 500 provides clients with an independent assessment of our ability, gives a flavour of who we are and what sets us apart from other law firms. Follow the web link for full details of the Legal 500 rankings.
Recent Cases
I advise on all aspects of family law including:
• Divorce
• Financial matters following separation or divorce
• Making arrangements for children
• Cohabitation Agreements
• Enforcement of Orders following non-compliance
• Financial Provision for Children
• Pre and Post Nuptial Agreements
• Separation Agreements
• Disputes regarding children
• Applications for urgent orders (including non-molestation and occupation orders)
• Child Relocation
• Child Abduction
I am often instructed in cases where time is of the essence. That can involve dealing with cases of international relocation/child abduction, freezing injunctions, cross-border financial applications and applications for orders where a child is at risk.
I specialise in cases of parental alienation and intractable hostility and work hard with my clients to ensure just outcomes.
I am a firm believer in resolving disputes and work with my clients to seek to settle issues at an early stage where possible.
I am a member of Resolution. (Resolution members are committed to promoting a constructive approach to family issues that considers the needs of the whole family.)
What makes me human
My worst personality trait is my inability to relax! In my spare time I always have a list of projects on the go, whether that be making a dress, laying a patio or trying out a new recipe. The only time of year I make an exception is my annual summer holiday, where I will do nothing but lie around with my kindle and catch up with all of the books I had been planning to read that year.
The purpose of this article is to give some guidance about what to expect if you have a hearing coming up in the Family Court and answer some common questions.
- Resolving cases outside of court – Changes to the Family Procedure rules
- What rights do grandparents have to see their grandchildren?
- My Ex won’t let me see my child this Christmas – What can I do?
- Cafcass launch Planning Together for Children programme
Very professional and friendly solicitors. Great advice and they dealt with my case with a successful result. I can’t thank my solicitor Emily enough. Thank you Neves. I know where to go whenever I need legal advice.
