Work Highlights

AB v CD [2022] EWFC B22

In a complex case Helen acted for a father in successfully defending a difficult case involving relocation of a child to a choice of locations, both within and outside of the jurisdiction. The Judge determined that the child must remain living close to the father to enable the child to maintain a relationship with the father and the wider paternal family.

Wife v Husband [2023] EWFC 273 (B)

Helen represented the applicant wife in a complex and long running financial remedies case, which resulted in a positive outcome for the wife enabling her to retain the family home, and a 50% pension share, despite this being considered a pension accrued before the parties’ marriage. The wife also secured a lump sum order and a payment towards her costs.

M v F & Anor [2024] EWHC 723 (Fam)

In a recent and long running case Helen acted for a mother responding to the father’s application for parental responsibility and seeking to have direct contact with the parties’ child. The proceedings included two finding of fact hearings, following the mother’s successful appeal before the President of the Family Division.

K, Re [2025] EWFC 139 (B)

This case concluded on the basis that the father’s contact was limited to indirect contact, a parental responsibility order and prohibited steps orders to limit his parental responsibility.

K & R v R & ORS [2024] EWFC 459 (B)

Helen represented the grandparents who successfully pursued a separate application to spend time with their grandchildren within acrimonious Children Act proceedings involving the parents.

Father v The Mother & Ors [2025] EWHC 2135 (Fam) (30 July 2025)

Helen represented the mother in relation to the father’s application to reopen a fact finding judgment, permission to make a further application for a Child Arrangements Order and for Cafcass to be removed from representing the children, with an Independent Social Worker appointed instead. On behalf of the mother, we applied for an extension to a section 91 (14) order until the children reach age 18 and for our client’s costs be paid by the father. The case was before Mrs Justice Lieven in the High Court and father’s applications were dismissed, with the mother securing a 91 (14) order for the rest of the children’s minority and a costs order against the father.
