Helen Thewlis and Natalie Marrison feature in Todays Family
Lawyer
Helen Thewlis, Head of Family Law and Natalie Marrison, Head
of Abuse and Personal Injury, have featured in Todays Family Lawyer, where they
discussed the training options available to solicitors to better help them
support sexual and domestic abuse survivors.
The pair told Todays Family Lawyer: “We ensure both of us
and our teams receive training and support from charities who focus on abuse
that is specific to our client base. This ensures that we all gain as much
knowledge and understanding of how to recognise sexual and domestic abuse, and
assist those victims in a sensitive manner so that they feel fully
supported.”
“It is important that we are able to safely signpost victims
of sexual abuse and domestic abuse where they may need alternative housing,
counselling or other services.”
