Emma’s work includes public law care proceedings involving allegations of sexual abuse, non-accidental injuries, emotional harm, and deprivation of liberty, as well as urgent medical and safeguarding decisions for vulnerable children. She also has experience of representing parties in matters involving historic and contested allegations, multi-disciplinary collaboration, and the navigation of overlapping criminal and family law issues.
