We are known for our expertise in undertaking the most complex care proceedings, involving niche areas of law, with ground-breaking and law-making results.
We handle a wide spectrum of complex cases involving:
- Radicalisation of children or where parents or family members are thought to be involved in extremism and terrorist activity
- Forced marriage
- FGM
- Trafficking
- Gang violence
- Non-accidental injury
- Sexual abuse
- Fabricated illness
- Medical treatment
- Complex jurisdictional issues
- Deprivation of liberty
We are committed to pushing the boundaries of law to ensure that the right outcome is achieved for the children and families in our cases, shaping and interpreting legislation and case law. We regularly appear for clients in the appellate courts, making innovative arguments aimed at modernising and developing the law as well as advancing our clients’ cases.
We are thought leaders in this field, with our team members serving on committees, delivering lectures and legal training, and contributing to legal publications. Our lawyers work to effect policy changes within family law, for the people we serve and to develop the next generation of lawyers.
