  • About me
  • Qualifications

I am a Trainee Solicitor currently in my third seat within the Family department, where I assist with a range of matters such as divorce, private children arrangements, financial arrangements on separation as well as pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements. I also attend court hearings and private Financial Dispute Resolution hearings.

I am committed to providing clients with clear, bespoke and concise advice in order to enable each matter to be as efficient and straightforward as possible. I am acutely aware that having a thorough understanding of each matter’s unique characteristics and maintaining clear communication with all parties is key to achieving the best possible outcome that aligns with our clients’ wishes and best interests.

Having grown up in Hertfordshire, I know St Albans, Harpenden and the surrounding areas well and I therefore take a lot of pride in the role that Taylor Walton plays within our local community.

I joined Taylor Walton in 2023.

  • Upper Second-Class Honours in LLB Law from the University of Nottingham
  • Distinction in Master of Laws (LLM) Legal Practice from the University of Hertfordshire
