Crossword Genius

Lady dives into trouble deliberately (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

advisedly

'deliberately' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'lady dives into trouble' is the wordplay.
'into trouble' indicates an anagram.
'lady'+'dives'='ladydives'
'ladydives' with letters rearranged gives 'ADVISEDLY'.

(Other definitions for advisedly that I've seen before include "following guidance?" , "with due consideration" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
