My Background

My background integrates a strong foundation in human rights with extensive experience in family law. I earned a degree in Politics and International Relations from Manchester University in 2007, followed by a Masters in Human Rights in 2008. My career began with work in human rights abuse documentation in Thailand before I returned to the UK to study law.

I trained as a solicitor with McCue & Partners, a firm specializing in human rights and public interest law, and completed a secondment at Camilla Baldwin, a Mayfair family law firm focusing on high and ultra-high net worth matters. In 2018, I gained Higher Rights of Audience, and in 2019, I achieved a distinction in a Master of Laws in Advanced Legal Practice. In 2019, I became a partner at D&G Family Law in South-West London.

Currently, I work flexibly as a family law consultant solicitor at Thea Ltd, where I provide expert legal services on various family law issues, from divorce and separation to child custody and financial arrangements.

How I work

As a solicitor specialising in family law, I offer legal services through my role as a consultant solicitor at Thea Ltd. My focus is on providing clear, calm, and effective advice across all areas of family law. I bring a compassionate yet practical approach to each case, ensuring that clients receive tailored support during challenging times.

Topics I advise you on include how to divide your finances after a divorce, taking into account your property, pensions, and the need for the payment of spousal and child maintenance. I prefer to reach negotiated agreements where possible, but do not hesitate take a firm approach utilising the courts if necessary.

I have extensive experience working with victims of domestic abuse and am dedicated to addressing each client's unique needs with sensitivity and professionalism.

I offer a free initial 30-minute telephone or Zoom consultation to discuss your situation and how I can assist you. For more information, you can contact me at via he form at the bottom of this page, email polly@pollyjackman.com or call 0777 589 4910.
