Alderson Law LLP are delighted to announce that Julie Nicholson and Mary Dargue are new joint heads of our family department. They are both based at our Blyth office. We have appointed joint heads as Julie deals with private client divorce and financial matters whereas Mary deals with predominantly legal aid funded child care cases.
Having worked in family law for over 25 years, Julie is a highly accomplished specialist in her field. She has a vast body of experience in dealing with family law, from divorce and related financial issues to complex child-related cases. Julie was the first person in North Tyneside to achieve the status of an accredited advanced family law specialist, and is a member of the Law Society Advanced Family Panel, which demonstrates her experience in complex contested family cases. Multi-talented and highly experienced, Julie’s particular specialty is complex ancillary relief (financial settlement) claims and complex residence and contact disputes. In her spare time Julie enjoys relaxing and spending time with her family and three grandchildren.
Mary was born and has lived all her life in the North East of England. Her first interest was science and she originally studied Biomedical Science at Northumbria and worked in the scientific research field and the NHS, before studying part time, again at Northumbria University, to obtain her degree in Law. Since then she has enjoyed a varied career covering many different areas of law, before specialising in Children Law, which she has done almost exclusively for the past 5 years. Mary loves reading and history and at a weekend can often be found at one of the many historical sites the North East has to offer and has even been known to play video games when she can find the time.
You can contact Julie & Mary on 01670 352293, at reception@aldersonlaw.co.uk, and via our website www.aldersonlaw.co.uk. We look forward to hearing from you.
