Abbie Winters

Solicitor

Get to know me...

The ability to assist others during one of the most difficult periods of their life is something that drew me towards a career in law and is an aspect of the job that I find very rewarding.

I started working at Wiltshire based law firms in 2019 and spent a lot of time in family departments gaining experience early on in my career.

I enjoy working closely with families. I feel extremely passionate and committed to working with my clients to find a solution that is in the best interest of the child, at what can be a very emotional time. 

Outside of the office, I am a keen horse rider. I compete in dressage, show jumping and cross country at a regional level on my horse, Hector.

Specialisms

I specialise in family law, including divorce and separation, financial settlements and cases relating to children. 

I have experience negotiating and advocating arrangements for children within court proceedings.

My greatest achievement

I raised money for the World Challenge charity by trekking up the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. The combination of the physical and emotional achievement is something I am very proud of.

I qualified as a Solicitor whilst also working full time in the legal sector over the course of four years. I am extremely proud of this, it provided me with invaluable experience as well as the academic knowledge to progress with my career.

Supported by

I am supported by Clare Swift, who provides excellent emotional support to clients if I am not available. She can be contacted via clareswift@goughs.co.uk.
