About
Upon completing her education in the UK, Mari spent several years working in California as a Paralegal in a variety of legal sectors. During this period, Mari gained invaluable experience in assisting families and individuals through oftentimes taxing and emotional litigation relating to civil rights abuses, including matters involving care orders, excessive force actions and public agencies. Having returned to the UK to complete her SQE 1 and 2 and qualify as a Solicitor, Mari is excited to be a part of a team that is dedicated to supporting families during what can be a challenging journey towards meeting their child’s educational needs. Mari’s aim is to be a compassionate, knowledgeable, and communicative advocate and representative during this process.
