Civil Litigation

Partner

Kathy has dealt with most areas of litigation in her 20 years’ experience.  Her particular area of expertise is in Property Disputes, and she is familiar with concerns that face both owners and occupiers of commercial and residential properties. Kathy frequently advises clients where there are challenges regarding boundaries, rights of way, party walls, nuisance, trespass, and misrepresentation claims.

Kathy enjoys dealing with the more complex commercial contractual disputes and advises clients in resolving complex disputes between shareholders and/or directors.  Particularly interesting are the cases where serious allegations of company/director misfeasance are involved, and it is imperative that the consequential advice and assistance is swift to protect the company.

Kathy also advises on the meaning and implications of the wording in contracts, title documents, leases, and notices, and, in certain circumstances, the validity of the same.

Kathy is an accredited Civil Mediator and utilises this additional skill set when advising and representing her clients.

Kathy is a member of the Property Litigators Association, the Contentious Trusts and Probate Specialists, and the Civil Mediation Council.

Kathy is also Chair of the Devon and Somerset Law Society Panel of Mediators.
