Kathy McQuillan

Trainee Solicitor - Family Law

I am a trainee solicitor in the family law team.

I began working at Morecrofts in February 2019. The best part of my job is the areas of law that we cover are so wide ranging that every day can bring a new challenge. I also enjoy being part of a team that provides a high standard of service to our clients.

I attended Edge Hill University where I obtained my Law Degree and graduated in 2016. I then attended the University of Central Lancashire (UCLAN) where I completed my LPC in addition to obtaining a Masters Degree focusing on Immigration Law and Human Rights. I am a mentor for aspiring undergraduate law students attending the University of Liverpool and I am also a student mentor for The Girl’s Network.

I have experience in in a variety of areas including; professional negligence, breach of contract, debt recovery and enforcement of judgments, property and probate disputes, personal injury and Court of Protection matters.
