Vicki Haywood

Paralegal

Aberdeen 01224 472991

I had always had an interest in law and gained an HND in Legal Services in 1997.  It wasn’t until 2008 when an opportunity arose for me to join a small independent law firm as a legal secretary to the Family Law Partner.  Whilst there, I qualified as a Paralegal specialising in Family Law.  In 2014, I moved to a larger law firm in Aberdeen which allowed me to gain more experience and I gained my accreditation as a Registered Paralegal from the Law Society of Scotland in January 2016 and I joined Balfour+Manson in 2018 working within their Family Law team in Aberdeen.

I assist the team with divorce and separation cases, contact and residence issues, adoptions and guardianships. 

The best thing about my job is assisting my colleagues within the family law team and working closely with our clients.

When I’m not at work you will find me either out on my mountain bike cycling around my local trails or planning my next backpacking adventure into the wilderness.
