Emma Collins

Spear’s Review

Emma Collins, head of Weightmans’ private client team, describes her job as ‘finding effective solutions to difficult family law issues in a discreet and responsive way, working collaboratively with my clients to ensure an in-depth understanding of their personal and financial circumstances, business and investments as well as their motivations and priorities. I cut through complex legal issues to what matters to the individual, without unnecessary and distracting antagonism to my opposition.’

She started her career at Mace and Jones, a north-west England practice with an established reputation for family law, having decided from the outset that she wanted to use her legal training to help people. 

‘I was fortunate to train with Carole Atkinson and see first-hand the impact of family law on people’s lives, and how that could be used to best effect to make a positive difference,’ Collins told Spear’s.
