“I just wanted to thank you Sophie for your continued support and understanding. I realise it’s your position to do this but I think you’ve shown an additional decency and understanding to me and my children”
SOPHIE PERRY
Sophie Perry is a Solicitor in the Divorce & Family Law Team and represents clients in divorce proceedings, financial matters and proceedings relating to children.
Sophie joined the firm in 2016 as a Legal Assistant in the Family & Divorce team whilst undertaking her Legal Practice Course, and subsequently qualified as a Solicitor in 2020.
Her training included 6 month’s within our conveyancing department which gives her an additional breadth of knowledge when it comes to property-related matters. Sophie is a member of the Thames Valley Family Law Society and Resolution.
Sophie understands that seeking advice from a family solicitor can often be a painful and difficult process, so she explains things as clearly as possible and takes the time to ensure that her clients know the different options available to them.
Sophie recognises that issuing Court proceedings is not always the most appropriate course of action for her clients and will always discuss whether there are appropriate alternatives to litigation.
