Career

Anest qualified as a solicitor in 2005 and joined our Family Finance team as a senior solicitor in 2020. Anest advises married and unmarried couples on all aspects of private family law.

Anest has a wide range of experience in divorce and separation including finances upon divorce, financial provision for unmarried couples and children and disputes as to the ownership of property.

Anest advises parents and other family members about the arrangements for their children including cases where there are allegations of implacable hostility or international dimensions.

Anest represents both parties in applications for non-molestation orders and occupation orders, having obtained such orders and resisted the making of them.

Anest has a particular specialism in fertility, surrogacy and modern parenting law and advises heterosexual and same sex couples as well as individuals seeking to create their family. She is experienced in international and domestic surrogacy arrangements. She advises intended parents and donors as to their legal parenthood status. She has represented parties in applications for declarations of parentage following conception using donor sperm both at a HFEA licensed clinic and outside the clinic. Anest advises about co-parenting arrangements and agreements. Anest has represented a client whose clinic refused to provide treatment on welfare of the child grounds. Anest’s cases have been reported in the law reports as well as the national media.

Anest is a committed member of Resolution and approaches matters in a constructive and non-confrontational away. When children are involved she seeks to encourage parties to take a child-centred approach to secure the best outcome for their child.

As a former member of the Executive Committee of the British Infertility Counselling Association, Anest has an understanding of the impact of the stress of infertility on a person’s health and she regularly signposts clients for support when needed.
