What has been the highlight of your practice over the past 12 months?

Acting on behalf of the applicant wife in the reported case: AB v AC [2018] EWHC 1319 (Fam).

What advice would you give rising stars/new lawyers in the private client world?

The law is extremely important but so is disseminating it in a way which is calm and logical. No matter how urgent it is, take time to think about the consequences of what you are being asked to do and evaluate whether it is the right thing for your client.
