Accepting new clients via ReviewSolicitors

I joined Higgs as a Legal Director in April 2025, having led the children law team at another regional firm. I am accredited by The Law Society as a children law expert. I deal with the full range of cases concerning children, from straightforward arrangements for a child to live or spend time with parents or other family members, to more complicated cases where it is alleged that a child has suffered significant harm. I also deal with injunctions to protect against abusive behaviour or in relation to other issues. I have acted in some of the most complex cases in the county, including those involving child death, the murder of a parent, parental alienation, sexual abuse and international relocation. I appear regularly before the Family Court and have appeared in the High Court and worked on cases being heard in the Court of Appeal. I am a member of Resolution (a community of family justice professionals who work with families and individuals to resolve issues in a constructive way) and I have been recognised in the Legal 500.
