I am a Partner in the firm of Brodies LLP. The Family Law Team is one of the most experienced and highly regarded in Scotland. I work exclusively with families facing relationship breakdown. I am an accredited family law specialist, child law specialist and an accredited mediator. Relationship breakdown can be traumatic. Mediation is an ideal forum in which to resolve the issues arising from relationship breakdown in a constructive and effective way. I have broad experience in financial provision and in issues relating to the future care of children. I have been appointed frequently by the Court as Reporter and Curator in family cases. I am a trained collaborative lawyer. My specialist areas include separation, divorce, prenuptial and cohabitation agreements; separation agreements; contact and residence disputes; child abduction; relocation and child maintenance.
