TIA CLARKE
To keep up with the demands of our
clients we have been recruiting more
exceptional people. We'd like to introduce
some of them here.
At work, I focus entirely on family law
and deal with all aspects of separation,
including high-net value financial claims,
settlements by consent, all aspects of
private children law and injunctive relief.
I went to Kingston University then on to
study my legal practice course with the
college of Law in London. After gaining
experience and qualifying, I moved to a
firm in Eastbourne before joining Mayo
Wynne Baxter.
In my spare time I enjoy horse riding and
travelling to new places.

I have recently joined the HR team as a
HR Assistant and have been very lucky
to have a fab little team to learn from as
this is my first HR Role. I am very keen
to develop in HR. Before starting with
Mayo Wynne Baxter I worked as a Legal
Support Assistant for the RSPCA and
have a small background in recruitment.
As Finance Director, I lead the firm's
Accounts team and am a member of the
Senior Management Team, charged with
delivering the firm's strategic plan.
Before joining MWB, I worked in London
for almost ten years, latterly as Finance
Director at London Business School. I
qualified as a Chartered Accountant 20
years ago while working with PwC, and
have also worked in the pharmaceutical
and transport industries.
After studying law at Bournemouth
University, I gained some practical legal
experience at a personal injury firm in
Somerset. I then went on to the legal
practice course in Guildford before
joining Mayo Wynne Baxter as a Property
Assistant in December last year.
When I am not working I am keen
traveller, I spent two years travelling and
living in Australia a few years ago and
have been fortunate enough to travel
a lot of America and Asia….although I
still have a lot more places on my list! I
also enjoy Zumba, love spending time
with my friends and family and am a big
animal lover.
I was attracted to MWB by its
progressive attitude, ambition, and great
people, and look forward to helping the
firm continue to drive forward.
Outside work, I enjoy spending time with
my young family, and in any time left
over I enjoy running, rugby, hillwalking,
and all things Scottish.
I really enjoy running and completed the
2013 Great North Run in September
raising money for charity. I’ve secured
a place for the Leeds Half Marathon in
May and hope to do the Great North Run
again.
I enjoy knitting and taught myself while
I was at university, I spend a lot of free
time making gifts for my family and
friends as well as taking some requests
from others.
