What is your position and what do you do on a day-to-day basis?


I am a partner and head of Family at Simpson Millar LLP in our Wimbledon office. On a day-to-day basis I manage a caseload of Divorce and Financial Remedies cases I supervise two trainees who carry out Private Children Care and Divorce work and also supervise an Assistant Solicitor who has a caseload of Care and complex Private Children.

On top of this I am involved in Business Development Marketing and Compliance for Simpson Millar.

How long have you been in this role and what brought you here?


I started at Simpson Millar in March 2013. I joined because there was a great opportunity to set up a family team in the south of England where Simpson Millar did not have a presence.
