Modern Families

At Kingsley Napley we have created a firm where we treat our work, our clients and our colleagues alike with integrity, respect and care.

Where diversity of thought, background and culture is not just encouraged, but expected. And where everyone, regardless of their seniority, experience or background is given exactly the same opportunity to contribute, progress and develop. You may like to read more about what makes us different.

In the family team, we recognise that all families are unique and we believe that our client service is first-class in recognising the distinct needs of each individual client.

We have experience working with all types of family, and the resulting breadth of family law issues that can arise. Whether you are considering moving in together, starting a family, getting married, or seeking to end a relationship, we can provide you with the support and legal expertise that you require.

Our clients also benefit from the breadth of experience within the firm – we can work alongside our dispute resolution, employment, immigration and private client colleagues to provide a holistic experience which recognises and deals with all of the issues that may arise for your family, rather than you needing to instruct separate lawyers.

Our expertise includes:

• Surrogacy
• Civil partnerships
• Pre-civil partnerships, post-civil partnerships
• Financial provision for children with unmarried parents
• Blended families
• Separating or starting a relationship in later life
• Assisted Reproduction
• Pre-conception donor agreements
• Co-parenting agreements

One of our partners, Connie Atkinson, heads up a leading team of surrogacy experts, and as a firm, we have been involved since the first parental order was made in England.
