Rita joins the Child Law Partnership having practised family law in Surrey for over 20 years. Rita will be advising clients on all aspects that arise following the breakdown of a relationship, whether clients are married, living together or in a civil partnership.
Rita is an accredited specialist with Resolution. Resolution is a group of around 5000 family lawyers who are committed to easing the pain and the financial costs of family breakdown. All Resolution members follow a code of practice which encourages solutions rather than confrontation, and which takes into account the needs of the whole family. Being an accredited specialist with Resolution means that Rita has passed a written test demonstrating a breadth of knowledge of family law issues and specialist knowledge in at least two areas of family law.
Rita says: “I am delighted to be joining the Child Law Partnership, who are a niche family law firm. Their approach is very much in line with my own. I recognise the importance of listening to clients, focusing on their situation and what they want to achieve. This enables me to tailor the advice that is right for them whilst always being conscious of the needs of the whole family and the effect that a breakdown may have upon any children and the need to put them first.”
Rita is committed to encouraging a conciliatory approach to resolving family disputes. That way, both the emotional and financial costs of divorce or family breakdown are minimised for those involved. Rita will be bringing her knowledge and experience to assist people who are going through a very difficult time and to help them work through that.
