I am a Partner in the Family Law Team at BTO Solicitors LLP and have specialised in family law for over twenty years. An Accredited Family Mediator, I am also an Accredited Specialist in Family Law and have a band 1 ranking in the Chambers UK legal directory. I am involved in various organisations including the national committee of the Scottish Collaborative Practice Group “Consensus” and I am a family law arbitrator with the Family Law Arbitration Group Scotland.
Coupled with broad experience in all aspects of family and child law, I specialise in dealing with the financial issues arising from the formation or breakdown of relationships, including those involving an international dimension. In addition I have particular experience in cases involving the valuation of companies and the interface between partnership law and family law.
As an accredited family mediator I have found mediation to be a powerful process that helps couples to reach a solution that is right for them and allows family law disputes to be resolved without recourse to the courts. Mediation keeps the decision making within the family and can be a particularly effective process in minimising the trauma for children caught in the middle of any dispute.
Disputes can involve financial and child care matters and a myriad of other complex issues. Mediation gives both parties the space and time to discuss the issues calmly with the support of a trained neutral mediator, and to allow them to find a solution to their dispute. My skill base and experience along with my genuine commitment to helping people allows me to provide a structured approach that guides couples gently through the mediation process towards a solution that both parties are in agreement with.
I am happy to receive referrals from the court and from other solicitors as well as accepting instructions directly from individuals and couples.
