Family Law
Mrinalini Dokka is a paralegal at Wimbledon Solicitors, based at our Tooting office. She works on family matters that often arise at a difficult and uncertain time, supporting clients from the first instruction onwards.
Mrinalini is a qualified lawyer in India, enrolled with the Bar Council of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry. She works with both legal aid and private clients, and speaks English, Tamil, Telugu and Hindi, which allows many clients to talk through their case in a language they are comfortable with.
Her work is carried out under the supervision of the family team, so every matter she supports is overseen by a supervising member of the department.
Divorce and separation
Support with divorce and dissolution matters, including the paperwork and the stages of the court process.
Financial matters on separation
Assistance with financial disclosure and the documents needed when finances are resolved after a relationship ends.
Child arrangements
Support on arrangements for where a child lives and how they spend time with each parent.
Protective orders
Assistance with applications for non-molestation orders and occupation orders, including urgent applications.
If you are not sure which of these applies to your situation, Mrinalini is happy to talk it through with you first, so that you understand your options before deciding anything.
Mrinalini prepares the documents and evidence a family matter depends on, keeps clients updated on where things stand, and makes sure each person understands what the next stage of their case involves.
Family cases are personal, and she deals with clients with patience and without judgement. Where a matter needs a decision on legal strategy, she works with the supervising solicitor on the case.
If you are in immediate danger, call 999. The National Domestic Abuse Helpline is free and open 24 hours a day on 0808 2000 247. To speak to the firm about a protective order, call our South Wimbledon reception on 020 8543 3302.
