Solicitor
Kate is a Solicitor in the Family Law team. She represents clients who are going through the breakdown of a relationship, and helps them to move on to the next chapter of their lives.
Kate listens to clients to understand what they want to achieve in the divorce or separation, and thinks carefully about the most cost-effective route to making that happen. She negotiates with the other side in a way that considers their point of view, while still advocating for the rights of her client.
Taking this diplomatic approach, she de-escalates tensions between partners, and finds a financial settlement that both parties agree on. She also helps her clients to agree on the arrangements for children.
Kate is part of our charitable fundraising team at KJ Smith and has helped us organised events to raise money for Breast Cancer Research, and other charities and support groups
Kate is based at our Oxford office.
