Chris has nearly 30 years' experience specialising in Family Law, particularly in high-net-worth divorce and financial matters, as well as advising on strategies for wealth preservation, primarily pre and post nuptial agreements.
He has also advised on disputes relating to children, including who children should live with, parental alienation, and internal and external relocation.
He is fully supportive of moves to resolve disputes outside of court where possible but is also known for dealing with the larger, more complex and difficult cases which often involve court.
Howes Percival's Family Law team provides a fully integrated and comprehensive service for high-net-worth individuals and family businesses. The team works closely with other legal experts within the firm who advise on the wider aspects of relationships and family matters, including those relating to property, estates, wills, probate, trusts and pensions.
All Howes Percival family lawyers are members of Resolution, a national organisation of family lawyers and other professionals committed to the constructive resolution of family disputes.
Partner and Head of Family Law at Howes Percival, Justine Flack commented, "We are delighted to welcome Chris to Howes Percival. He is very well regarded in our sector, and it is great to be able to bring someone in with so much valuable experience. The Family team is growing nationally because of the high level of instructions which we are receiving, and we are now in a position to establish a dedicated team in Cambridge to support our clients in the area and to add to our private client offering in the city.
"We are seeing significant growth in demand for our services from a number of areas including the rise in popularity of pre and post nuptial agreements, while the preference for cohabitation over marriage means more couples living together with less rights, so understanding the options for them is important. We continue to see demand for divorce expertise, particularly in relation to the so-called ‘silver splitters' - older, often retired couples where they have significant assets including pensions."
