Brabners LLP

Family

Hannah is a Legal Director in our family team.

She specialises in providing advice in relation to the legal issues arising from relationship breakdown, including the arrangements for children, divorce and financial settlements. She also advises on protective measures such as pre- and post-nuptial agreements and cohabitation agreements and is a recognised expert in modern family and LGBTQ+ services such as surrogacy arrangements, donor conception and co-parenting agreements and adoption.

When it comes to children arrangements, Hannah is an expert in making and defending applications to relocate with children (both within England and Wales and overseas), domestic and international adoption, surrogacy and fertility law, allegations of sexual, physical and psychological abuse, applications by grandparents for access to grandchildren, parental alienation, fabricated or induced illness, parents and children who are neurodivergent and drug and alcohol dependency.

She also has specialist expertise in advising cohabiting couples on relationship breakdown — both in terms of resolving issues relating to property and securing financial provisions for children.

In relation to financial matters, Hannah acts for clients with assets of all levels but has particular experience in dealing with cases where the assets are complicated and high value, emergency measures (such as freezing injunctions) are required or there are international elements.

Hannah has appeared on local and national radio and television to discuss family law issues. She has also written for publications including Today’s Family Lawyer, The Times and The Financial Times.

A passionate advocate for neuro-inclusion, Hannah is a mentor for Nurturing Neurodivergence, which provides peer-to-peer mentoring to empower and support fellow lawyers to thrive. She also volunteers for the charity Neurodiversity In Business.
