Private Law ChildrenFinance

Deborah is highly successful and enjoys an excellent reputation nationally and internationally as a pre-eminent authority in children law. Her expertise in this area includes internal and external relocation, parental alienation, substance abuse, mental health and education issues. She is also extremely well respected in the matrimonial finance and enforcement field offering tremendous experience in ancillary relief cases, prenuptial agreements and applications pursuant to Schedule 1 of the Children Act 1989. For many years she has handled some of the most significant, far-reaching and complex cases in the field of family law for both UHNW and high-profile clients. Almost all her work has an international dimension.

In addition to being technically challenging, Deborah’s cases are often strategically and tactically complex, and require a highly sensitive, skillful and nuanced approach. She is naturally able to make an outstanding contribution in all these areas.
