Family Law Barristers
Instructions in all aspects of public law work are accepted on behalf of children, parents and local authorities. Private law work includes contact, residence and injunctions.
Several of our family law barristers deal predominantly with cohabitation disputes, TOLATA applications and civil partnerships, as well as financial ancillary relief cases. There is a high level of expertise in both child abduction and human rights work.
