Brooke Parkes

Law Clerk

Brooklyn graduated top of her class with a law degree from the University of Birmingham. Whilst in school, Brooklyn was very involved in advocacy work to provide better access to government-funded fertility treatments for women. In addition to, she operated her University’s Pro Bono clinic offering free legal advice in family law matters to members of the general public. However, she is most proud of having been published for her article titled “Regulating Surrogacy Payments in England: Ethical and Legal Issues.”

In her spare time, Brooklyn enjoys reading, following pop-culture trials and is an avid dog lover (but really, who isn’t?). She’s also a big formula one fan which accounts for almost all her Sundays.

Brooklyn aims to begin articling at Gelman & Associates in 2025 as the next step on her way to becoming a family law lawyer.
