What the Team is Known For

Lake Legal has a prominent Leeds-based team offering medium to high net worth clients the full spectrum of private family law assistance. The firm displays well-honed expertise in financial settlements, with additional experience in nuptial agreements and TOLATA cases, and is also active in children cases, such as child arrangements and order applications. It offers all forms of ADR, including mediation, arbitration and collaborative law, and is noted for its considerable experience handling matters with cross-border elements.

Strengths

I couldn't speak higher of them. They are the go-to provider of legal services in Yorkshire.

The Lake Legal team are very empathetic and calming, which is very good for emotional times.

They remain highly regarded and technical, with a great deal of experience, and are very capable.

The Lake Legal team provide bespoke and tailored support, gravitas and responsiveness.

They have a very experienced team of senior lawyers who handle cases in the region as well as nationally, and can go toe to toe with City lawyers without flinching.

Notable practitioners

Lyn Ayrton is senior partner and head of family law, as well as being both a qualified arbitrator and collaborative lawyer. She regularly advises high net worth individuals on financial remedy proceedings, including complex cross-border matters.

 

Lyn is very experienced.

 

Lyn is such a nice person but very professional; she puts you in a comfortable space.

Claire Glaister is recognised for her strong expertise in complex financial disputes arising from divorce and separation as well as the negotiation of nuptial and cohabitation agreements. She also assists with children-related matters, such as contact arrangements.
 

I was very impressed with Claire's approach, attitude and service. It made what was an incredibly difficult situation much easier.

 

Claire is a force. She takes no nonsense but does so with a human touch.

 

Claire has immaculate judgement and works very hard.

Hollie Burnett primarily advises clients on financial remedy proceedings, while also handling cohabitation and children law disputes.

 

Hollie Burnett worked hard and handled this case with grace, maturity, sound judgement and commerciality. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
