Camilla is a consultant in the family team based in our central London office in Bedford Row.
She is highly regarded by her peers and has almost 30 years' experience advising on all aspects of family law including divorce, separation, financial settlements, cohabitation and matters involving children. Her particular expertise lies in advising mid to high-net-worth individuals, including non-residents, on their financial settlements following separation and divorce, and has acted in numerous cases involving family trusts, inherited wealth, entrepreneurs, private companies, large pensions, offshore assets, city bonuses and high earning professionals. In addition, she has considerable experience advising on pre and post-nuptial agreements, often with an international element.
Camilla also practices as a family mediator (both for finance and children) and regularly offers support and advice to clients who are seeking to reach their own financial settlements and arrangements for their children within the mediation process.
Camilla is committed to helping her clients settle their family disputes within the right legal process for them and in a sensible, constructive and cost effective manner. Most of her cases settle without the involvement of the court, but for those that do not, she will fight her client’s case within the court arena with tenacity.
She is ranked as a leading individual in The Legal 500 (2022) and was recognised in Best Lawyers 2020.
She has had numerous published articles published in a number of family law publications, including the Family Law Journal, and is a member of Resolution.
