Our Expertise

Family

Any family conflict is a sensitive matter and can cause undoubted personal difficulty, especially when the dispute escalates to legal action in respect of personal and emotive issues.

We pride ourselves on dealing both with the complex legal issues that may arise, but also in remembering that our clients need our support and understanding.

Family law can involve a wide range of issues and Laurence Keenan provides a full range of advice in this area, including:

Asset protection structures
Children
Cohabitation issues
Divorce Applications
Injunctions and Freezing Orders
Matrimonial finances
Pre-nuptial and post-nuptial Agreements
Separation Agreements

Our team are experienced litigators but, where appropriate, we try to encourage a collaborative family law approach. In many cases an early dialogue or mediation can achieve a much more expeditious settlement or agreement.

However, our client’s best interests are paramount. We will protect and advance your position in negotiations and, if necessary, we will robuslty pursue your interests in court.

We have particular expertise in:

managing and resolving high net worth and complex multi-jurisdictional financial cases
acting for family members in tragic and sensitive circumstances
complex trust and estate disputes

We offer an attentive, efficient and discreet service and are proud to have maintained good ongoing relationships with many of our family clients.
