Testimonials

  • Acting for a UK based Wife in her successful application to top up her financial award following matrimonial proceedings in France on the basis that she should not have had to use her French divorce award for unpaid child maintenance.
  • Representing an EU national living in England in respect of his application under the inherent jurisdiction to stay the Wife's financial application here, to allow a divorce to progress in the home country of the parties, which the Husband considered to be the more appropriate jurisdiction. The matter was settled outside of court shortly before the hearing.
  • Acting for a Father in relation to arrangements for the parties' two young children, moving over the lengthy period of representation from the mother's starting position of no time spent overnight with the client to a shared care position.
