A little about Me
I too went through a separation when my son was young when I was practising as a Solicitor, so I have extensive legal and personal knowledge to draw from, my own and my clients.
I took some time out to heal my own wounds so they did not get in the way of supporting clients. I needed to heal as my ex was abusive and I unknown to me at the time I experienced Narcissistic abusive behaviour. It was not an easy journey so I truly know how devastating healing after Narcissistic abuse can be. Hence, why I now want to support and empower others. I have trained in many therapeutic modalities and and I am Trauma Informed and training in various therapeutic modalities.

I strongly believe you need more than legal support, your life is being turned upside down and when you are at your most vulnerable you are being asked to make major decisions about your life, your future and that of your children, if you have any. There are many who have experienced abuse and really need to be supported by someone who is trauma informed and who understands Narcissistic behaviour. I see so many client's who are misunderstood in the Family Law system and they can get further abused by people in the system.
The family law system is failing clients. I came out of practice as a Solicitor as I wanted to find a new way of supporting and helping clients by way of empowering them.
I genuinely believe when the right support is received with Trauma Informed and Narcissistic Abuse aware professionals you are in a better place to make informed decision. Too many times, I see client's spending thousands of pounds because the advice given is allowing their pure emotions to make the decisions. I hear time and time that clients say they wish they had found me first. With around £350 an hour fees, and £10,000 savings depleted I now support clients to pick up the pieces. So why not choose the right support at the outset.
I am down to earth, coming from a working class background. I grew up in a not so perfect family. I studies law at University as a mature student, achieved a 2.1 degree. I then astonished myself achieving a distinction in my postgraduate study to become a Solicitor and received the honour of receiving a Law Society Prize Certificate for the most outstanding student in my year.
I love living by the sea and in my spare time, I love to swim in the sea all year round, cycle, dance and eat too much chocolate.

Why now practice as a McKenzie Friend
I am able to use my professional and personal experience to support people through the legal matrix of Family Law.
I believe in allowing people to make their own informed choices rather than being swept along in a process. I feel it is important for clients to feel empowered and running their own case with guidance and support will achieve this.
The Service
My experience enables me to offer you a a similar role to that of instructing a high street Solicitor. The service does not include advising on the merits of your case,
I can explain to you what your options are, what the relevant law says, what the likely outcome will be of taking a step and what types of order are relevant in your case. After all it is your choice and no one not even a Solicitor can tell you what a Judge will order at a final hearing because, in my experience, every Judge is different and the evidence at the hearing can change a case.
Preparation, a good case theory and good independent evidence to support your case is so very important if your case proceeds to a final hearing.
