Since I qualified as a solicitor in 1993 I have specialised exclusively in family law – dealing in particular with financial matters and arrangements for the children on separation or divorce. My aim is to assist clients to resolve matters fairly and by agreement.

Having worked at Gregsons in Wimbledon and Osbornes in Camden Town I moved to Family Law In Partnership, Covent Garden in 1997, where I became a partner in 1998. I set up in practice on my own in 2004.

I am an accredited member of Resolution (formerly the Solicitors Family Law Association) with portfolios in pensions, cohabitation and private child law.

In September 2003 I undertook the first UK training to become a Collaborative Family Lawyer (see www.collabfamilylaw.co.uk for details of the Collaborative model for resolving matters).

I co-train courses which teach participants how to deal with anger and conflict (see www.How2Be.com for details).

I qualified additionally as a mediator in 1998. I am an accredited mediator with the Family Mediators Association and a professional practice consultant with the Family Mediators Association and with Resolution.

If you consider I might be able to assist you, please feel free to contact me. My details are: Telephone: 020 7751 4455; Email fjt@florenceterry.com.

I am unable to offer publically funded advice, but try to offer rates which are affordable.
