Why choose me

When people are vulnerable and need help from someone they can trust, I am there to listen, give honest advice and guide them through the process. As a family lawyer it is important that I provide a swift conclusion to matters, allowing my clients to move forward with a fresh start.

I represent a wide array of clients on matters including divorce and financial remedy, children matters and injunctive proceedings. I take a practical and technical approach to try and achieve negotiated settlements. At a crucial time in people’s lives, I always recognise the need for sensitivity and the benefit of settling matters early to negate the emotional and financial toll on all parties.

Outside work, I enjoy spending time with family and exploring new places.

Questions my clients ask me

This depends on the nature and complexity of your case. I can provide a cost estimate once I know what is going to be involved in your case and will always keep you updated on costs.

Not in all cases. Much will depend on the case and the conduct of the parties. If possible, it is always advisable to reach an agreement outside of court which will also help keep costs down.
