Since his move to Kent in 1989 Jeremy has established a busy family based practice with particular emphasis on ancillary relief work and public law children cases. He also has considerable experience of dealing with cohabitation disputes and private law Children Act applications.
Ancillary relief cases in which he has been involved include those involving modest as well as significant wealth, and cases with an international dimension. His Children Act work includes residence and contact disputes, leave to remove applications and financial claims on behalf of children under Schedule 1.
In public law Children Act proceedings he represents parents and guardians. He has vast experience of acting in Care proceedings involving complex medical issues or allegations of serious sexual abuse, parallel criminal proceedings and clients with learning difficulties. Jeremy also has experience of Adoption and Special Guardianship proceedings.
