Sarah advises on all aspects of private family law including divorce, financial issues and child arrangements.
Sarah’s financial practice consists of divorce and the associated financial remedies for a wide range of clients including those with modest means and those where the assets exceed £10m or there are complex issues, such as jurisdictional issues or complex business/trust structures. Sarah is particularly known for her work dealing with nuptial agreements (pre nups or post nups) including those that have an international element and separation agreements/deeds. As part of her practice, Sarah has substantial experience in dealing with financial matters for unmarried couples (whether TOLATA or under Schedule 1 of the Children Act) and third-party disputes involving intervening or joining proceedings to protect third party interests, such as grandparents protecting their interest in a matrimonial home.
As part of Sarah’s private children practice, Sarah advises parents with general child arrangements and more specific applications including internal/external relocation or leave to remove. Having two young children of her own greatly assists Sarah’s advice and compassion.
Sarah is committed to resolving cases as amicably as possible and has an excellent track record in settling cases out of court using alternative methods of dispute resolution such as private FDR’s, mediation or arbitration but can be an effective litigator when required.
Clients value Sarah’s straightforward and cost-effective approach to her cases.

I cannot thank you enough for your support. Thank you”.
“Thank you. I wouldn’t have made it this far without your help”.
“Thank you for your availability, courtesy and helpfulness during our divorce. I don’t know how many thanks you get from counterparties. It wasn’t all straightforward, and divorce is never a joyful time, but your clarity and helpful attitude made it much easier than it might have been”.
