This comment was left on one of my TikToks this week. And it stopped me.

Because I can’t tell that person they’re wrong. That experience is real. And it’s one of the reasons so many people dread the whole process before it’s even begun.

But not every lawyer is the same. Just as in any profession, there are people who are in it for the right reasons and people who aren’t.

If you’re about to instruct a family law solicitor, ask them questions first. How do they work? How do they communicate? What’s their approach to resolving matters? You are allowed to find out if they’re the right fit before you commit.

I know what it feels like to sit on the other side of that desk. I’ve been a law firm client myself. And that experience shaped everything about how I practise.

Client care isn’t a value I display on a website. It’s the reason I do this differently.

I know what it feels like to sit on the other side of that desk.

To need legal help and not fully understand what’s happening, or why, or what comes next. That experience never left me. And I made a decision that it would shape everything about how I practise.

I became a family law solicitor. I built a business around making family law rights accessible to everyone, not just those who can afford to sit in a lawyer’s office for hours.

Some days this work is hard. Some days I’m tired.

And then I remind myself what a privilege it is to do this every day. To be the person who makes it make sense for someone who is lost.

That’s what keeps me going.

I wish more people knew that divorce does not automatically sever your financial ties to your spouse.

Without a clean break order, your former spouse can still make a financial claim against you, even years after your divorce is finalised. Even if you’ve already divided everything between you.

This is one of the most common and costly assumptions I see people make.

A clean break order is what closes that door for good.

Save this and send it to anyone going through a divorce. It could be the most important thing they see today.

“Of course she’ll stick up for them. She’s a woman.”

This comment was left on one of my posts recently. So I thought I’d address it directly.

I’m a family lawyer. My job has never been to take sides. It’s to make sure people understand their family law rights, whoever they are.

🩷WELCOME FROM ME!🩷Here’s a little bit about the woman behind this account…and trust me, it’s quite a story!

Swipe to find out why a two-hour assessment, a decision I made against everyone’s advice and an unexpected commission from a law school all led me here.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for following my journey. It means more than you know. 🩷

After years as a practising family lawyer, here are some of the ways we can spot a narcissist during court proceedings.

10/06/2026

If someone is rushing you to agree, ask yourself why.

In my experience, urgency around a financial settlement rarely benefits the person being rushed. It benefits the person doing the rushing.

Because if the offer on the table was truly fair, they’d have no problem with you taking your time. They’d have no issue with you getting proper legal advice. The rush itself is the red flag.

When you agree to a settlement quickly to keep the peace, to get it over with, to avoid conflict, you risk walking away with far less than you’re entitled to.

That means potentially missing out on a fair share of the family assets. It means not knowing what their pension is worth or that you may be entitled to a share of it. It means agreeing to something you can’t undo before anyone has told you what you actually had a right to.

Full financial disclosure from both sides exists for a reason. Use it. Insist on it.

You are not being difficult by slowing down. You are protecting your future.
