Joanna Brown

I qualified as a barrister in 1990, and practised on the South Wales Circuit for seven years. I've specialised in family law for over a decade, including solving problems with children (both private and public), domestic violence, relationship breakdowns and finances. I am also a member of the family law panel.

I believe my conciliatory approach helps clients through what is often the most stressful and distressing period of their lives. However, for the rare cases that do need to go to court, the skills I gained as a barrister enable me to provide a consistent and continuous service.

In my private life, I sit on a Family Centre Committee. The centre runs various educational and recreational activities for families in the West Norwood/West Dulwich community. I’m also the Chairperson of a fostering panel that meets quarterly to assess potential foster carers.

And I keep fit by playing basketball once a week. I also run at least three times per week and my ambition is to run a marathon within the next two years.
