Fenners Family Practice Group

After previous changes in the family law system, the unified Family Court breaks down the barriers that used to exist between the different tiers of the court system. Coupled with the removal of legal aid for most family cases and financial pressures on public bodies concerned with the welfare of children, Fenners’ Family Practice Group was well prepared for all these changes and looks to offer its services in ways which ensure that the best legal advice and representation is still available to all – regardless of the financial circumstances of the family members concerned.

The Family Practice Group represents spouses, partners, parents, children’s guardians, local authorities and extended family members.

The Family Practice Group can advise on general Family Law issues including:

• The validity of marriages or civil partnerships
• Claims of nullity
• Divorce proceedings and judicial separation
• Civil partnership disputes
• International family jurisdiction
• Forced marriages

The Family Practice Group is further divided into two specialist Groups:

My experience of using Fenners Chambers via the direct access scheme has been great. From the initial contact right up until my court hearing, the clerks and barrister have been very helpful, sympathetic and understanding. Although it was all dealt with in a professional manner, it also felt personal and that reassured me whilst dealing with such a traumatic time in my life. Nothing can prepare you for the fear as you enter a court room but Abigail Pilkington was fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable and professional but again making me feel at ease during such a difficult time. I would like to thank you all for making this awful time a little more comfortable. I would most certainly recommend your chambers”.
