‘One of the go to firms for children work’, Freemans Solicitors combines expertise in public and private children law with a specialist matrimonial finance team. Team head Nina Hansen is ‘second to none’ in her work for vulnerable children engaged with local authorities and high-profile, often aristocratic, clients alike. For international matters Laura Coyle is a go-to: ‘her technical expertise is second to none and she is a tactical genius’. Mark Kosmin heads up the matrimonial team, supported by Georgina Stavrou, specialising in matters involving complex asset structures. Marianna Michaelides joined the team from Bindmans LLP in November 2023, with particular expertise in international parental child abduction work. Andriana Syrimis is also recommended.
