About me

A Family Mediator Committed to Peaceful Solutions

I am a family mediator and French-qualified lawyer, registered with the Paris Bar and as a foreign lawyer with the Law Society of Hong Kong. I now live and practise in Leeds, Yorkshire.

From the very start of my legal career, I have been committed to helping families avoid unnecessary conflict and emotional turmoil. Divorce or separation doesn’t have to be a battle. Even in complex international situations, it is possible to separate with respect, dignity, and clarity.

Family Mediation – A Different Way Forward

Rather than letting conflict escalate, I offer a calm, structured, and confidential space where couples and families can communicate, understand one another, and reach lasting agreements—especially through family mediation, which is:

  • Voluntary

  • Confidential

  • Constructive

Mediation is possible even in cases of international divorce, family disputes between siblings, or issues involving different legal systems or jurisdictions.

Franco-British Expertise and a Multicultural Perspective

My personal and professional journey has taken me from Paris to Hong Kong, via Japan, and now to the United Kingdom.

I’ve worked:

  • In the non-profit sector, at the Œuvre des Pupilles and Amnesty International France

  • As a lawyer specialising in international family law in Hong Kong

  • And now as a bilingual family mediator, supporting Franco-British and international families

With British, Vietnamese, and French roots, I bring cultural sensitivity and a deep understanding of the emotional and practical challenges families face when living abroad or across borders.

A Trusted Professional Network

Finding the right professionals can be a challenge—especially when you're far from home. That’s why I work closely with a trusted international network of lawyers, notaries, mediators, therapists, and family advisors in France, Hong Kong, and the UK.

In Hong Kong, I collaborate with JC Legal, where I founded the family law department.

I am a member of:

  • Resolution (UK)

  • STEP (international estate planners)

  • Expat-Pro

  • The Avocats de la Paix network in France

Practical, Human-Centred Mediation

Every family is unique. But all families deserve to be heard, to feel safe, and to be supported in finding a constructive, personalised solution—especially during times of transition or tension.
