I regularly receive referrals from professional colleagues abroad and have a significant international element to my practice.With more than 34 years' experience, first in London with Manches' highly regarded family department and then in Oxford, I have been accorded top ranking in both Chambers UK and The Legal 500 for many years. I am a member of Resolution, a national organisation of family lawyers committed to non-confrontational divorce, separation and other family problems and am also a trained collaborative lawyer. In 2015 I became the first lawyer in Oxford and the Thames Valley to be awarded a Fellowship of the International Academy of Family Lawyers (IAFL). IAFL is a worldwide association recognising expert family lawyers in their respective countries; only a small number of UK family law specialists outside London are members. Show less
