| My journey to being a
McKenzie Friend began in 2015, when I became
involved in a complex child arrangements case for
my son. Initially, I made the costly mistake of
hiring lawyers. After spending around £2000,
before even stepping foot in a courtroom, I had
sight of the preliminary documents. They were
littered with errors. At that point, I promptly
dis-instructed them as I felt that I could do a
better job as a litigant in person. I realised that I had a flair for
family court when a judge described my documents
as “better than what experienced
barristers produce”. I won my case and
got the exact result that I had wanted for my
child.
Prior to becoming a
McKenzie Friend, I was educated at Cambridge
University, attaining a double first. I then
spent some time as a surgeon, before starting my
own business. Working as a surgeon taught me to
be calm under pressure and to have good
interpersonal skills, dealing with patients and
fellow staff members. Running my business taught
me to attain excellence for my clients.
Court can be a stressful
and challenging time. However, I pledge to do my
very best to get a favourable outcome for my
clients.
