Emma joined Elliot Mather LLP in 2017 and qualified as a solicitor in our Child Care Department in 2021. Emma works at both our Mansfield and Nottingham offices, covering cases in the Nottinghamshire area.

Emma represents parents, family members, and carers when child services become involved with children in their care. Emma aims to provide constructive and practical advice to achieve the best outcome for her clients, representing them in pre-proceedings and in care proceedings at court, and aiming to conduct her own advocacy wherever possible. Emma is also able to advise on special guardianship matters, contact with children in care, and adoption matters.

Emma has represented a number of vulnerable clients with learning difficulties, mental health issues, and disabilities. Emma is careful in her approach in these often extremely sensitive and difficult situations for her clients to find themselves in, so that she can guide them through each stage of the process.
