Bik qualified as a solicitor in 1997 and from that time has practiced continuously in Family law.
She was a recommended family practitioner in the Legal 500 in 2002 cited as providing an excellent service to her clients. She is now a member of the Resolution Committee on professional standards (Resolution being the professional organization to which many family solicitors belong) and has in the past published articles of professional interest in their journal (the Resolution review).

Because of a long standing interest in employment law, Bik now advises on Employee Settlement agreements.
