ABOUT ME
Her recent personal experience of divorce, has led her to set up ‘FormEfinance’, which offers financial support during the divorce process and beyond. Jackie will guide you through the divorce financials, working alongside you and your lawyers.
“My first priority after the break up of my marriage was to protect my children and try to ensure that their lives, largely, remained unchanged. A huge part of this, was ensuring a fair financial resolution. For most of us, finances are not unlimited so it was imperative that I had great legal advice and that my legal fees were as low as possible. From discussions with my lawyers, this meant presenting my finances in the most complete and thorough way. As a Chartered Accountant, responsible for all of the family finances, this was ‘easy’ for me. Although the emotional challenge of laying out a 22 year marriage on a few pieces of paper was unexpectedly difficult!
I worked with my lawyers as part of a team and I truly believe that together we arrived at a fair financial settlement. This has enabled me to move on to the next phase of my life quickly and happily.
I know that divorce can cause immense stress. It’s easy to think that money doesn’t matter. Personal confidence disappears and the anxiety of financials makes you want to throw in the towel. But now I am through the other side I can see that financial independence matters and being in charge of your finances should be your goal.
My lawyers were amazing and encouraged and supported my financial independence, which made the journey so much easier and whilst I wouldn’t wish divorce on anyone, I can honestly say that being on the other side is a fantastic place to be. I want to help you get there.”

“EXPERTISE”
“First met with Jackie really early on in the divorce process – and I believe that was the perfect time to start meeting with her. When everything is feeling new, stressful and uncertain, Jackie was a calming presence and full of expertise and common sense. She made an intimidating process much more manageable and I firmly believe that without her help I would not have had the confidence that I do in handling the financial aspects of my divorce.
She gave me a boost just at the right time, and also provided the tools to ensure I approached my Form E and divorce in a professional, evidenced and strong way. Not only that, but she’s great company, will make you smile (just when you don’t feel like smiling) and will leave you feeling ready to face the next stage. Thank you Jackie!”

“Thank you for your precious help. You were efficient, patient and reassuring.”
“INVALUABLE”
“Jackie was of invaluable help to me in filing ouI was absolutely lost when asked to collate my financial affairs during my divorce. Jackie made the whole business not only clear and easy to understand but immensely enjoyable.
She set about it all with a complete grasp of everything required, made sense of the legal language and complicated ins and outs of divorce protocol. Most importantly she set about it all with great good humour which, for me, was the greatest asset of all. I can’t recommend her highly enought my Form E and related documentation. During a time of considerable stress and disarray, Jackie’s ability to work around my other time commitments and her ‘can do’ personality really made a difference to me.”

“FANTASTIC ATTENTION”
Jackie and I have worked together and I am pleased to testify to her fantastic attention to detail and her organisational prowess. Her financial background and numerical literacy means that she can analyse financial information quickly and easily, whether that’s bank statements or more complicated disclosure.
She is commercially minded and efficient and a pleasure to work with. However, one of Jackie’s key attributes, and this is an attribute that makes her so excellently suited to help with the preparation of disclosure in divorce cases, is her effortless combination of common sense and empathy. I have no hesitation in recommending her.
