Claire’s Story

About me

Prior to pursuing a career in law, I spent 10 years as a Lecturer in Corporate Finance and Business Law at the University of Stirling and Edinburgh Napier University, having completed an MBA in Finance at the University of Stirling in 1990.

I’ve practised in Family Law and Civil Litigation since I qualified and spent 5 years at the Scottish Bar practising in Family and Employment Law before returning to Private Practice in 2016.

I have extensive experience in dealing with all aspects of Family law including financial provision in high net-worth divorce cases in the Sheriff Court and Court of Session, cohabitation claims and complex residence/contact disputes.
