The firm is impressive in cross-border matters, fielding several dual-qualified lawyers, and is active on matters concerning child relocation and contact issues. Lawyers from the family group work alongside those from the firm's property, trust and employment teams on particularly complicated divorce and financial proceedings, as well as on nuptial and cohabitation agreements.
