Family

Rougemont Chambers’ Family Team is expert in all areas of family law.  Matters of public law are undertaken on behalf of parents, local authorities and guardians.  Members feature on a number of approved local authority panels, including Court of Protection work.  Particular expertise is available in “shaken baby” cases, and private Law instructions include representation for parents with significant personality and learning difficulties, with an emphasis on developing empathetic relationships with clients.  Financial remedy work is undertaken by members, and this has included a number of technically complex farming and business-centred cases.  Public Access is available also, and Chambers’ mediation suite allows for multi-party conferences, providing for the possibility of early settlements.  Individual members have particular interests across the family spectrum, and are available for consultation in the normal way.
