Amy is a Senior Associate Solicitor and the head of our family law team.

After spending a year being an au pair in Germany, Amy went to Lancaster University.  During this time she spent a year studying law in Lausanne, Switzerland.  Amy received First Class Honours in European Legal Studies and then did her LPC at the College of Law, Guildford and then completed her training with Osbornes Solicitors in Camden Town.

Amy is a separated parent herself and so fully understands the difficulties facing parents experiencing a separation.

Over the last few years Amy has developed an expertise advising grandparents which she finds very rewarding.  Having lived and worked abroad, Amy enjoys working for expat clients and the complex issues that arise, having acted for clients in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE.

Amy was appointed a Deputy District Judge in April 2019 which is a part time judicial role and which requires extensive family and civil law knowledge.

About Amy

Amy enjoys rural life, particularly walking with my chocolate Labrador, Coco.  She tends to spend every spare hour in her garden, mainly sitting, but occasionally gardening.
