How I can help 

If child arrangements feel confusing, hostile or as though they are spiralling, I help you work out what to do next. 

With 23 years of family court experience, I help separated parents make sense of the process, prepare properly, and move forward with clearer strategy, stronger paperwork, and confident Cafcass and hearing preparation.

Mark, 42 — Father, Chelmsford

“Ophelia helped me turn my messy notes into a clear position statement — the judge even quoted from it. I couldn’t have done it without her.”

Daniel, 38 — Separated Dad, Colchester

“I only wish I’d found this sooner. Ophelia’s support with my C100 was a fraction of what I would’ve paid a solicitor.” 😊

Sophie, 35 — Mother of Two, London

“The advice Ophelia gave me before my Cafcass interview completely changed how I handled it. It was a real game-changer.”
