Sue is an experienced family and divorce lawyer who has expertise in all aspects of matrimonial and family law but specialises in the financial implications of family breakdown and in particular with Armed Forces Personnel. She is predominantly based in the South West but also spends time working in London. 

Sue also specialises in serving clients in divorce cases with an international element (Expat Divorce) – whether they are expats living abroad and wanting a UK divorce or foreign nationals married and wanting to divorce in this country.   

With comprehensive experience in resolving children issues she also acts for both parents and grandparents in family disputes and understands the importance of taking the conflict out of situations and encouraging solutions based on the needs of the whole family, she is a member of Resolution whose members are bound by codes of practice that ensure quick and effective resolution set to minimise the negative impact that disputes often have on children.                

With experience in Civil Partnerships, Pre–nuptial Agreements, Cohabitee Disputes and Domestic Violence, Sue has extensive court experience and indeed enjoys advocacy and so can deal with your case through the Magistrates Court or the County Court should you require representation in any court proceedings.

Sue is also a trained Collaborative Lawyer which is a rapidly growing practice throughout the UK in which divorcing or separating couples can work together as a team with their respective lawyers through 4 way meetings, without the need of going to court. Disputes are resolved respectfully and the process is faster and less acrimonious than court proceedings.

Sue is very approachable and has an ability to understand her clients' needs well, she appreciates the importance of keeping her clients well informed and advised at every step of the process. She manages all her cases in a methodical, professional and businesslike manner to a successful conclusion in the most cost effective way for the client. 

Sue is based in Helston, West Cornwall and but manages cases throughout the whole of the South West and beyond as she also has a work base in London. Matters can be dealt with very efficiently by email and telephone or by personal appointment and she is very flexible and happy to travel and can also arrange out of hours appointments to suit the client’s needs. Further afield she services clients across the globe from Canada to Australia, the Far East, Dubai, the Americas and Europe.
