I am a solicitor specialising in all aspects of family law, including divorce and separation, financial remedies, and children’s cases. I provide careful and tailored advice, whether in regards to negotiation and resolution, or advocacy before the court. I qualified in 1998 and joined Butcher & Barlow as a result of the merger with Salt Veeder. I am a Partner in the firm and the head of our Private Family Law Department. I am based in the Bury office. I hold a number of accreditations, namely: Resolution Accredited Specialist in Complex Financial Remedies and Children’s Law; Member of the Law Society Advanced Family Panel with specific expertise in Children, Financial and Domestic Violence matters; and Member of the Law Society Children Panel (Child Representative) as an expert in public and private children’s law cases and the representation of children and adult parties. I have acted in a number of high net worth divorces and important children cases, including in the High Court and Court of Appeal and more specifically I acted for one of the parties in the leading case on Special Guardianship namely R : S (Adoption or Special Guardianship Order) [2007] 1 FLR 819. My entry in the Legal 500 directory of leading solicitors describes me as “patient” and as having “excellent knowledge and experience’ and I work always to provide sensible and practical advice in a friendly and approachable way.
