SERVICES OFFERED: All family law related matters including: • Divorce • Child care and contact • Maintenance • Relocation • Antenuptial contracts • Wills • Universal partnerships • Domestic violence • Harassment.

ALSO OFFERED: Mediation services as an alternative to litigation Karen spent 25 years working in the clothing industry prior to making the decision to follow her dream of becoming an attorney at the age of 40, in 2008. She completed her LLB through UNISA in 2011, graduating in May 2012 with 16 distinctions, and having completed articles during this period. In September 2012 she was admitted as an attorney of the High Court and joined a family law firm as a Professional Assistant. In 2013 Karen commenced her Masters of Law specialising in family law, graduating in 2016.

In January 2018 Karen started her own firm - a few weeks after her 50th birthday. In 2019 she completed her BA (Psych - cum laude).

She is a Conflict Dynamics accredited mediator, the acting Vice Chair of the Advice Desk for the Abused and the Vice Chair and founding member of the Family Law Forum of KwaZulu-Natal.

Karen is passionate about family law matters, particularly the effect that litigation has on not only the parties involved, but, more importantly, any children affected by the litigation. She is dedicated to offering holistic solutions to often very complex matters.

As a divorced parent herself, she understands the difficulties encountered during familyrelated disputes and the emotional challenges faced by the parties and the children.

Karen strives to empower her clients to get through, and recover from, separation and divorce with dignity and hope.
