Carol specialises in family law, with particular expertise in child arrangement orders, enforcement applications, specific issue and prohibited steps orders, as well as non-molestation and occupation orders. She is known for her sensitive yet robust approach, particularly in matters involving domestic abuse and child welfare, ensuring that her clients and their families are protected through fair and effective legal outcomes.

Her recent work includes representing a mother who experienced domestic abuse, where the court granted an order for indirect contact only until the father successfully completed a further perpetrator programme. In another case, Carol represented a mother facing ongoing abuse and allegations of parental alienation, where findings confirmed the abuse, resulting in protective orders being made.

She has also acted for a father wrongly accused of abuse, successfully obtaining a “lives with” order that secured equal parental involvement. In cases involving non-molestation and occupation orders, Carol has achieved findings of significant coercive and controlling behaviour, ensuring her clients received the necessary protection from further harm.



In one particularly sensitive matter, Carol represented an aunt seeking child arrangements following the death of her sister. Despite opposition from the child’s father, Carol secured an order in favour of the aunt, preserving the child’s vital family connection.
