Leading family law barristers

Welcome to the Spear’s ranking of the best family law barristers for high-net-worth individuals in the UK

By Spear's

Part of the Spear’s Legal Indices

Going through a divorce can be one of the most unpleasant, difficult situations in one’s life. For high-net-worth (HNW) individuals with more than £1 million in investable assets, this process can come with added complexities.

A barrister who specialises in family law can tackle specific issues that can arise out of such situations, including matters of visitation, custody and financial matters such as inheritance and asset division. They are also able to represent individuals on other family matters such as pre-and post-nuptial agreements, surrogacy and adoption.
