I am a solicitor providing specialist legal advice and assistance across all aspects of private family law. I am based in our Colchester office, and am available for a free 15 minute chat over the phone. My contact details are 01206 217389 or phoebe.trott@birkettlong.co.uk.

I chose this path as I love helping people. When clients come to us it is often a very stressful and emotional time for them. I like to be as supportive as I can to assist clients in making the decisions to move forward to the next chapter of their lives.

I have been at Birkett Long for over 2 years having completed my Training Contract with the firm.

As a member of Resolution, I am committed to resolving disputes amicably with a focus on what is best for the family.

Outside of work, I practice Pilates and enjoy spin classes on a regular basis. I also love eating out at different restaurants – which is a good combination to balance each other out!

Divorce and Family team

Our divorce and separation team understands that the breakdown of a relationship, particularly if children are involved, can be a difficult and stressful time for all those involved. We list to the needs of our clients and treat each client as an individual. This ensures we are able to tailor our advice and help guide you through the legal process. We can assist you to make important decisions at a time when you may feel unable to do so.
