About Mae

I approach all cases with a view to achieving the best possible outcome for the client. I understand that the family court process can be daunting, overwhelming and that clients are often going through a very difficult period in their life. I therefore work hard to ensure that clients are kept fully informed and that they understand what is happening, every step of the way.

Mae is able to advise on a range of both private and public law children matters.

She has considerable experience in representing parents where there are concerns of domestic abuse, neglect, and drug & alcohol misuse.

Mae qualified as a solicitor in October 2019 and joined Russell-Cooke in December 2021.

Education

Studied LLB (Hons) Law with Business at the University of Brighton, graduating with a 2:1
