Family Law.
Divorce, custody, adoption — the cases where the clients are families, not businesses. We protect what matters with discretion and plain talk, settling where settlement serves you and fighting where it doesn't, in step with our estates and property colleagues.
Overview
Family cases turn on trust before they turn on law. You will know where your case stands, what each path costs, and what it means for the children — in plain words, from the very first meeting.
Divorce and separation, custody and support, adoption and guardianship. We move fast where children or safety are at stake, and slow where a negotiated outcome protects everyone — especially when property, businesses or pensions are intertwined.
Where family matters cross borders or generations — custody across jurisdictions, prenuptials with international assets, estates tangled with a separation — our London headquarters and associated counsel in Singapore plug in under one instruction, so you never have to manage two firms at the hardest time.
