About

Work with me

I've recently taken the exciting step of launching Arabella Legal and Mediation — a practice built around offering a more personal, flexible, and compassionate approach to family law.

My goal is to create a calm, supportive space where you feel genuinely seen and heard.

If a traditional office setting isn’t your style, I’m happy to meet you where you feel most comfortable — whether that’s a quiet café or your own home.

I understand that separation is a significant life moment and whilst it can be challenging, it doesn’t need to be difficult. With the right guidance, it’s possible to navigate the process with a focus on moving forward with confidence and dignity.

Whatever path you're on, I’ll be right beside you.

Lastly, amid the mess- it’s okay to laugh.
Moments of lightness don’t diminish what you’re going through.  Laughter is a sign of strength, not denial and it can be a powerful reminder of who you are.
