Davina Warrington

Davina has supported people from all backgrounds, including homemakers, professionals, business owners and individuals with more complex financial or personal circumstances. Her calm and measured approach helps clients make sense of even the most emotionally charged situations.

She advises on the full spectrum of family law, including divorce and separation, financial settlements, arrangements for children or grandchildren, prenuptial and post-nuptial agreements, and international or expat divorce. Davina has experience supporting high-net-worth individuals and high-profile cases, handling complex financial and reputational considerations with discretion. She believes court should always be the last resort and strongly encourages clients to explore alternative dispute resolution wherever possible.

A committed advocate of non-court dispute resolution, she has extensive experience guiding clients through mediation, solicitor-led negotiation, and private Financial Dispute Resolution hearings. Davina feels passionately that, given the current delays and pressures on the court system, clients need to consider faster, more cost-effective options. Even when mediation does not fully resolve matters, it can help clients exchange information and explore settlement ideas, making future negotiations smoother.

She explains: “I always do my best to encourage clients to find sensible solutions in a cost-effective and speedy manner, with the least amount of damage to relationships.”

Clients appreciate Davina’s balanced and down-to-earth advice, and the way she makes the legal process feel less daunting. Her ability to combine practical guidance with genuine empathy has led to many of her clients recommending her to family and friends.

Davina qualified as a solicitor in August 2005 and joined Woolley & Co in 2006 after working with a respected family law firm in Burton upon Trent.

Away from work, she enjoys countryside walks, spending time with family, and attending live music events.
