Kristie Silsby LLB (Hons)
Solicitor
I’m a solicitor in the family law team at Willans. I help clients both with the legal considerations when starting a relationship as well as when there is a breakdown in a relationship.
I am empathetic in my approach and understand the emotional issues involved with a relationship breakdown, and work with my clients to resolve their finances and children disputes as efficiently and amicably as possible.
I also help clients with the preparation of nuptial and cohabitation agreements at the start of a new relationship in order to prevent future disputes from occurring.
