I joined Duncan Lewis Solicitors in April 2022 as a Child Care Caseworker, having successfully completing the LPC at the University of Law, Bloomsbury. I currently work under the supervision of Child Care Director Sophie Fretten. I work within a team of solicitors and caseworkers any my role primarily involves assisting the day to day progression of matters in all areas of child care law including public law children work, private law children work, and cases involving domestic abuse. I often deal with cases involving complex issues such as mental illness, substance and alcohol misuse and neglect. Working alongside my team and working with cases involving vulnerable clients and highly complex matters, has enabled me to be able to assist empathetically and effectively.
