Associate Solicitor

Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

Having qualified as a Family Solicitor in 2016 and after practising at two well-established firms in Eastbourne, I joined Cora as an Associate Solicitor for CVG Family Law in March 2025. I first realised that Family Law was for me whilst undertaking a seat in Corporate Law during my training contract. I was given the opportunity to shadow counsel in the Family Court; the rest they say is history. That passion for Family Law has continued and I have acted for a vast range of clients on all aspects of private Family Law. I have a specific interest in private Children Law and child arrangements and my passion lies with supporting and representing victims of domestic abuse in injunction proceedings as well as all other areas resulting from their separation. This aligns extremely well with Cora’s vision for CVG Family Law, and I am excited to support her in this work as the firm develops. In addition, I also have extensive experience of matrimonial finance cases, separation issues (including financial matters upon separation of unmarried couples) and pre/post nuptial agreements. I have also developed a niche specialism in pet ownership battles, and as a pet owner myself, this is something I have become very passionate about! Outside of work, I am a dancer and perform locally, as well as further afield, and I also teach dance classes too. I’m very lucky to live by the sea, and I love spending time with my partner and our husky going for long walks or to see live bands and eating good food!

Outstanding legal support with genuine compassion.

I cannot thank Cora enough for the support she has given me throughout what has been, without a doubt one of the most difficult and emotional periods of my life. She has supported me wholeheartedly every step of the way, and I genuinely could not have asked for a better solicitor to have in my corner. Cora has shown not only exceptional professionalism and dedication to her profession, but also compassion, understanding and genuine care for what I have been going through. At times when I have felt overwhelmed and emotionally exhausted, knowing that I had someone who listened to me and understood my concerns has meant more than I can put into words. The outcome she has achieved means everything to me and my children. This was about so much more than a court outcome; it was about protecting my family and being able to feel safe again. CVG Family Law achieved that and so much more. Cora, I will always be grateful for the way you have stood by me, believed in me and supported me throughout this journey. Your dedication has made a real difference to my life, and I cannot thank you enough. I would recommend you without hesitation to anyone needing a solicitor who combines outstanding legal support with genuine compassion and commitment. You have been absolutely incredible. I also want to say a huge thank you to Holly, who has worked so hard behind the scenes to ensure everything was completed to such a high standard. The paperwork was detailed, thorough and meticulously prepared, and it was clear how much time, effort and attention to detail had gone into every aspect of the case. A special thank you to Robyn, who stepped in at the last minute to assist with one of my hearings. Despite the short notice, she was incredibly professional, supportive and reassuring throughout. During such a stressful and emotional time, having someone step in and provide that level of support made a real difference. From start to finish, from the Director to the juniors and PA’s, all the team at CVG Family Law have quite honestly been outstanding.

Outstanding Family Law Solicitors

I cannot thank CVG Family Law enough for the support they provided during one of the most difficult periods of my life. Going through divorce and family law proceedings was incredibly challenging, but their professionalism, compassion, and expertise helped me navigate every step with confidence. They supported me in securing a Financial Order, Child Arrangements Order, and Non-Molestation Order, always ensuring I understood my rights and options. Their guidance empowered me to make informed decisions for myself and my two daughters. What truly set them apart was their genuine care for my wellbeing beyond the legal process. They helped me recognise unhealthy patterns, encouraged me to establish healthy boundaries, and signposted me to valuable support services when I needed them most. Thanks to their dedication and support, my daughters and I now have the stability, security, and peace of mind we desperately needed. I will always be grateful for the difference they have made to our lives and would highly recommend CVG Family Law to anyone needing family law support.
