Areas of expertise 
Lucy is both a family solicitor and trained family mediator.

Lucy is renowned for her expertise in both financial matters and child law.

Lucy has obtained the Law Society Advanced Accreditation in complex financial
settlement and children cases. Lucy is also a Member of Resolution and committed to
the constructive resolution of family disputes.

With over 15 years’ experience in family law, Lucy can support clients with the
resolution of their divorce and on related financial issues including pensions,
businesses, and pre-acquired marital wealth. She also supports co-habiting couples,
who need help to resolve a dispute following their separation.

As a trained family Mediator, Lucy can offer a bespoke mediation service to assist in
any children or financial disputes. The sessions can either be remote or face to face at
one of our 23 national office locations in the UK. Mediation is a means of resolving
disputes in an amicable, non-confrontational manner that meets the needs of both
participants. Mediation can often be a quicker, more amicable, and less stressful
process than the more traditional route at resolving disputes, such as going to court.
Lucy is registered with the Family Mediation Association.

With extensive experience in child arrangement related matters in family disputes, Lucy
supports on issues such as residence, contact, prohibited steps, specific issue orders
and leave to remove cases.

She has worked on complex cases including those with an international dimension and
local authority involvement.

Examples of how Lucy has supported clients include:

Mediated in a case which led to a shared care order in relation to the time spent
by a father with his children, in a case involving parental alienation by the mother.
Mediated in a case involving a proposed move to take a child out of the
jurisdiction to live abroad; and
Mediated in a case involving complex financial issues involving pensions and
significant pre-acquired marital wealth.
