Rita is a Legal Executive specialising in family law. Rita has over 20 years experience in this area and joined the Child Law Partnership in July 2008. She advises 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.
As a member of Resolution, 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's approach is to focus on a client's situation and specifically what they want to achieve. That enables her to tailor the advice that is right for the client whilst always being conscious of the needs of the whole family and the effect that a breakdown may have upon any children.
Rita is also a Collaborative Lawyer. Collaborative law is an alternative way of dealing with family disputes whereby each party appoints a collaborative lawyer and all negotiations are conducted in a series of four way meetings which are very open and frank. The aim of collaborative law is to resolve family disputes without going to court.
