With over 15 years of experience as a lawyer in India, including expertise in family law, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a diverse skill set to my current work as a McKenzie Friend in the UK. My legal journey began in India, where I honed my understanding of law before expanding my qualifications with a Master’s in Law. Additionally, I am a qualified accountant, which further
strengthens my ability to navigate complex financial settlement matters, ensuring that clients receive sound financial advice in divorce cases.
Upon relocating to the UK over 12 years ago, I became deeply involved in divorce and financial settlement matters, particularly after representing my husband in his previous divorce proceedings. This personal experience has given me invaluable insights into the challenges individuals face during such difficult times.
As a McKenzie Friend, I assist clients in preparing their cases, organizing documentation, and providing moral and practical support during court appearances. My meticulous attention to detail and dedication to each case ensure that clients are well-prepared and supported throughout the legal process.
I have a particular focus on assisting individuals who are on benefits or in financially disadvantaged situations, offering my services to those who need a knowledgeable, reliable, and supportive presence during their family law proceedings.
