“This law firm has been amazing! They have put so much dedication and hard work into my case and gave me the best outcome I could have wished for, Annabel and Nahanni, they have been amazing and so supportive through extremely distressing times.”
Nahanni qualified as a solicitor in March 2022. She joined the company in June 2018 having previously assisted in a pro bono clinic offering support and guidance to those in traumatic situations whilst she studied for her LLB degree at Plymouth University. Nahanni graduated with a First Class LLB Hons and enrolled onto the Legal Practice Course alongside a masters degree in Law, Business and Management where she studied and worked with the Family Law Company as a paralegal.
Nahanni completed her training contact with The Family Law Company during the mist of the Covid-19 pandemic and now works within the Divorce & Finance and Private Children and DV teams. She is passionate about helping those who are most in need and endeavours to ensure that legal processes are clearly explained to minimise as much distress during proceedings.
