ABOUT GRACE

Grace decided upon an alternative route to the Bar by working in a law firm as an advocate to develop and enhance her legal skills, utilise her advocacy qualification and learn to build a rapport with clients from all sections of society. During this time Grace attended a wide variety of Court hearings ranging from Pre-Action Disclosure hearings, interlocutory applications, case management hearings to infant approval hearings and Stage 3 hearings. This experience has enabled her to fully understand the needs and demands of solicitors and lay clients.

Working in Personal Injury has equipped Grace to analyse complex and technical medical records and reports. Grace is familiar with the medical technical jargon and issues concerning causation and pre-existing conditions.

Grace has experience in Family Law having acted for parents in Care Proceedings and dealing with Private Law Children matters. Grace previously acted for clients in a range of litigated matters including Multi-Track Civil Litigation Disputes, Personal Injury claims and Employment matters.

In the last 2 and a half years, as a qualified solicitor, Grace has focussed on Family Law and represented clients from PLO through to Issues Resolution Hearings and Final Hearings.
