Position

Children Act work is focused to private children case, in particular parental alienation matters or where there is a breakdown down in contact in light of implacable hostility from one parent, and the manipulation of children in such disputes is often a challenge to overcome.

Financial remedies work is focused on high net cases with an international element. Often, World Wide Freezing Orders are a necessary application being made before the High Court . In particular, cases where assets have been dissipated prior to divorce proceedings and an add back needs to be established. Also, Schedule 1 cases in respects of a child’s financial needs.

A nuanced area of George’s practice is void/voidable and non-marriage cases, often requiring expert evidence as to cultural practises which can be fascinating.
