Joanna Potbury

Jo is regularly instructed to deal with complex and high net worth divorces as well as private children law disputes and the protection of family wealth through pre-nuptial, post-nuptial and cohabitation agreements.

Jo has expertise dealing with divorce cases involving trusts, businesses, high value property and assets located outside the UK. She also has extensive experience in relation to child disputes including Schedule 1 and Leave to Remove.

She is recognised as an expert in the family arena. In addition, Jo’s background is in commercial litigation, having trained with the firm and qualified into the Technology and Media Dispute Resolution team, before moving on to specialise in family law. She is, therefore, uniquely qualified to bring a commercial and pragmatic approach to matrimonial financial cases which involve complex business and overseas assets.

Jo has built up a strong network in Brighton and the surrounding area.  This, combined with her particular skillset, has enabled the team to carve out a niche as a market leader for complex matrimonial cases in the region.
