How I work with clients
I understand that Family Law matters are not just legal issues, they are deeply personal. My approach is:
- To be clear and pragmatic – cutting through complexity to focus on what matters.
- Being constructive where possible – helping clients avoid unnecessary conflict whilst aiming to keep their legal costs down.
- I am firm when needed – protecting your interests in more challenging cases.
Whether you are dealing with Divorce, arrangements for children or financial disputes, I aim to guide you towards a resolution that allows you to move forward with confidence.
What makes me human
I am a parent to two children so I understand first hand the challenges of balancing family life. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with family, friends, reading and supporting charitable causes. I have previously undertaken pro-bono work with the Citizen’s Advice Bureau, assisting individuals with family law issues.
Feedback for Tina
"Tina Shah was brilliant throughout my case dealing with very difficult circumstances. Her calm and reassuring approach took away a lot of the stress from the situation and she made sure I was kept up to date all the way through. She was clear with me about her costs and her assistant Sally was always very helpful. A great team to deal with if you are going through a family breakup. I would give 10 stars if I could I am so happy with how things worked out. Thank you"

How I can help your family move forward
Every family situation is different. Some of my clients want to keep things amicable from the outset, while others need firm decisive action to resolve more complex or urgent issues. The examples in the Family Law Case Summaries below reflect how I work to provide clear advice, practical solutions and focus on achieving the best possible outcome for you and your family.
Divorce settlements have traditionally been shaped by domestic factors such as income, assets and family needs. In today’s interconnected economy, global events (from geopolitical conflicts to inflation shocks) are increasingly influencing how wealth is valued, divided and contested on Divorce.
