Notable successes
Acted in complex financial remedy case where the court found in Kate's client’s favour that a significant sum provided by the other party’s family was a soft loan which did not need to be repaid. The court did not deduct this amount from the assets, meaning that her client received a significant lump sum to purchase a home.
Acted for a Claimant in a Cohabitation dispute. Court upheld the declaration of trust in Kate's client’s favour. Her client was awarded an additional sum to account for his expenditure on the property and a costs order was made against the Defendant
Many of Kate's matters are able to be resolved through negotiations, mediation, private FDRs and other forms of non-court dispute resolution.

About Kate
I enjoy baking and challenge myself annually to make birthday cakes for my children – previous creations have included unicorns, movie themes and many iterations of dragons!
I think colleagues would describe me as approachable, knowledgeable and thorough.
I am fascinated by history – if I hadn’t been a lawyer I would have studied history. Pompeii is on my bucket-list.
My ideal weekend would be spent catching up with friends, drinking copious amounts of coffee and settling in for a family movie night.
