Solicitor
What I do
I am a solicitor in the Childcare department, I represent parents, grandparents and other individuals within care proceedings. I represent clients at Court and during pre-proceedings meetings, (PLO) with the local authority and other professionals.
I have represented clients in cases involving the local authority’s removal of children, domestic violence, non-accidental injuries cases, drugs and alcohol misuse cases and more.
I work strategically with parents, other family members and professionals to achieve the best possible outcome for my clients, whilst also considering the child’s best interest.
What I bring to the team
My approach to dealing with clients, is making the information understandable, with a client centred approach. It is important for me to ensure I explain the process to my clients in a non-ambiguous way, and for clients to know that they can discuss and ask me anything related to their case without feeling uncomfortable.
I have been told that I am approachable, down to earth and a people person.
Key interests
I have a keen interest in music. I enjoy travelling and discovering new places. I enjoy public speaking, and sharing different life experiences. Lastly, I do love a good series.
