I started my career in 1995 at an established Aberdeen city centre law firm. I worked initially as a legal secretary for a Partner in the busy Court Department. My interest in the area of Family Law soon led me to undertake further study. I gained my HND in legal services in 2001 and qualified as a Paralegal specialising in Family Law. In 2003 I joined a small specialist Family Law practice in Aberdeen which allowed me to extend my experience.
I attained accreditation as a Registered Paralegal from the Law Society of Scotland in 2011 and joined Balfour+Manson in 2017 working within their Family Law team. I have extensive experience in assisting with divorce and separation matters, contact and residence issues, guardianships and adoptions.
I strive to provide first class support to our family law team in Aberdeen and our clients. I assist the team but primarily Lynne Mulcahy with managing files and papers and complying on court procedure, and generally looking after the needs of the clients. I enjoy the daily interaction with clients and the variety of work which family law entails.
