At Seven Chambers, our Family Law team offers expert, practical legal advice across all areas of family law — from financial disputes to the welfare of children. Our barristers are known for their tenacity and are frequently involved in complex and challenging cases. No matter the status or value, we treat every case with the same determination to succeed for our clients.
Private Children Law
We provide specialist advice and representation in complex disputes regarding child custody and arrangements, acting for parents, children, grandparents, and other family members. Our barristers are regularly instructed in intricate fact-finding hearings, particularly where allegations of abuse are involved.
Divorce and Family Finances
We advise on all aspects of divorce and financial settlements, including marital and separation agreements, jurisdictional disputes, recognition of foreign divorces, and post-overseas financial claims. We are particularly skilled in cases involving offshore trusts, complex financial structures, and investment vehicles.
Domestic Abuse
Our team provides sensitive yet robust advocacy for individuals affected by domestic abuse, handling non-molestation orders, occupation orders, and other protective legal measures. We ensure clients receive full legal support throughout the process.
Public Family Law
Our barristers are highly regarded in public law children work, representing children, parents, and local authorities in care proceedings, adoption, secure accommodation, and post-separation welfare issues involving local authority oversight.
International Family Law
We advise clients with cross-border family law issues, both UK-based and overseas, on marital and separation agreements, cross-border financial arrangements, jurisdictional challenges, recognition of foreign divorces, and enforcement of international family law orders.
