Elizabeth was born and raised in the Midlands but came down to the Brighton area in 1974 and has remained here ever since. She obtained her law degree at Manchester University and qualified as a solicitor in 1977. She joined this firm in 1988 and has been a partner since 1989. She will be celebrating her 30th anniversary of qualifying this year.

Elizabeth has covered all areas of law in her time, but since 1990 has very largely specialised in family law including children's cases. She has trained as a Mediator, particularly with regard to money matters, through Resolution and is one of the founder members of the Brighton Pod of solicitors who undertake the Collaborative law process. She has British Sign Language Stage 1 and is also knowledgeable on the subject of educational requirements for children with special needs.
