Jade joined Sills & Betteridge in 2014 and is a Chartered Legal Executive.
Having worked in all areas of family law since 2014, Jade now specialises in private law children matters and matters that involve domestic abuse, for clients who are either private paying or Legal Aid funded. Jade is passionate and committed to helping clients during perhaps one of the most difficult periods of their lives. She is known for going over and above for her clients and wants only the best possible outcome for them and their families.
Jade advises clients from the outset and throughout their case, whether that involves informal negotiations, mediation and/or Court Proceedings, Jade’s range of knowledge means she can support and assist her clients throughout. Jade is realistic with her clients whilst remaining personable and empathetic. She ensures that her clients are kept up to date and are well informed as to the progress of their matter. Jade also has experience in undertaking advocacy, representing clients in both the County Court and Magistrates Court. Where possible, Jade will cover her client’s Hearings, to ensure consistency and minimal disruption for them.
Our children law team, of which Jade is a key member, recently won the Children Law Team of the Year at the Lexis Nexis Family Law Awards. She is a Senior Executive within the Firm and as result of her knowledge and experience, is regularly sought out and relied on by more junior members of the team for help, support and guidance.
