A Journey through Loss and Litigation: Episode 6 – Emma Gray
In this episode, we are joined by Emma Gray of Rainbow Hunting, a former non-contentious private client lawyer who has experienced the realities of bereavement from both sides of the legal process, professionally, and personally. Emma shares a powerful insight: you can have all the legal knowledge in the world, but you still don’t know what you don’t know until grief happens to you. We talk about the collision between grief and litigation and how the legal system often expects people to make rational decisions, meet deadlines and navigate complex processes at a time when their world has been turned upside down. Emma explains what grief-aware legal support looks like in practice, from compassion and clear written communication to pacing decisions and recognising the emotional toll of litigation. We also explore Emma’s work through Rainbow Hunting, where she helps people find hope in difficult times through grief therapy, a low-cost membership community and her Sadmin® course, which guides people through the end-of-life paperwork they may need to work through.
