Head of the department, Mark Hepworth and associate Nina Banerjee have both achieved national recognition as Accredited Specialists within the field of Family Law, of which only a handful practise in North Yorkshire.
Nina is also a fully trained family collaborative lawyer and a member of the York Collaborative Family Law Group and the North England Collaborative Family Lawyers. Collaborative Law allows you and your former partner to reach shared solutions and agreements away from the Court, giving you more control of the situation. You and your former partner sit down with your own solicitors in the same room and work through issues together face-to-face. The aim is to reach the best solutions for you and your family.
Mark's specialist areas are cohabitation and Court advocacy, whilst Nina specialises in financial and Children Act proceedings.
The family department does not undertake Legal Aid work but will discuss flexible approaches to funding that recognises client's individual circumstances.
