About Emma
Emma decided to study law later in life, gaining her Law degree in 2021, from the prestigious Birmingham Law School.
In 2023, Emma went on to obtain a Distinction in her Masters of Law from the University of Law in Birmingham. Her dissertation title was ‘A Critical Evaluation of School Attendance Law in England: Is it time for Reform?’
In November 2024, Emma was called to The Bar of England and Wales after completing her academic training to become a Barrister*.
As if that was not enough studying, Emma is currently working through Levels 1, 2 and 3 of the SEND IPSEA training.
Emma is passionate about helping parents /carers due to her own horrendous experience, when her child was out of school due to Emotionally Based School Avoidance. Her child could not leave the house let alone get to school for many months.
You can watch more here how her story unfolded in 2021 by joining her Facebook support Group.
The group now has over5000 parents and carers of children that cannot ( as opposed to will not) attend school due to poor mental health, anxiety and unmet/undiagnosed Special Educational Needs.
Emma has appeared twice on Channel 5 news discussing the mental health crisis that is happening within schools across the country.
What makes us different from other law firms?
Professional no nonsense but empathetic service . This is because all of our staff are professional, empathetic with many being SEN parents/carers themselves.
