Last updated on October 3rd, 2022 at 11:14 am

Nicola is a family law solicitor in our family department, based in our offices in Chesterfield.  She joined the firm in December 2014.

She has practiced law since 2000, specialising in family law.  After qualifying from Sheffield Hallam University with a law degree, and undertaking her Legal Practice Course in Birmingham, Nicola qualified as a solicitor in 2006.  She covers the whole range of family law issues, including divorce, finances, children, prenuptial agreements, cohabitation agreements and domestic violence. Nicola has a particular interest in Children Act proceedings.

Nicola is a member of the Law Society Family Law Accreditation Scheme, demonstrating that she has and will maintain a high level of knowledge, skills, experience and practice in family law issues.  She is also a member of the family lawyers’ organisation, Resolution.

She is passionate about giving her clients the best possible service; offering a pragmatic  and empathetic approach, putting clients at ease and instilling trust and confidence from the beginning.  Nicola dedicates herself to securing the best possible result for her clients in a non-adversarial way.  Much of her work comes from personal and professional recommendations.

Nicola is recommended in the Legal 500 2023. One client said that she was “fantastic” and “without Nicola’s support and guidance, I’m not sure I would have had the confidence to start my case or to stand up for myself and eventually achieve the outcome that I did.”

Nicola represented a couple in a case which went before Sir James Munby in the Family Court where the father of a child had been left without legal parentage due to a blunder made by an IVF clinic.  Read the full story.

Some of her clients has recently said:

“Thank you so much for all your support and hard work during a difficult time for me” (see full quote)

“The service I received was 10/10.  It could not have been improved.”
