PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND

Beth also has experience in separations involving family farms that have their own particular elements that need to be considered in a relationship breakdown.
AREAS OF INTEREST

She also has a keen interest in utilising social media to dispel common myths around divorce and family law, often arising due to portrayals on TV and movies, to encourage people to seek advice early on in the separation process.
Beth prides herself on building a strong rapport with clients, giving them the confidence needed to get through a difficult time in their lives.
