Mark Senior
Work Department
Family - Children
Court of Protection
Position
Mark has appeared at every level of the Family Court since 1989 over almost the entire range of applications that are dealt with by this court.
As his practice has developed, although he still appears in private law disputes and Hague Convention/relocation cases, his time is predominantly spent acting in public law proceedings under the Children Act 1989 in which he acts for local authorities parents and children.
He is regularly instructed to appear in cases which involve allegations of physical and or sexual abuse and complex expert evidence. He has been instructed to appear in the Court of Appeal on a number of occasions and two cases from which he derives particular satisfaction are appeals that he successfully brought on behalf of the children who were the subject of the proceedings.
Career
Mark qualified as a Solicitor in 1993 and became a partner in a well respected local firm in 1997. He specialised in family law cases and was a member of the Law Society Children’s Panel representing children who were the subject of care proceedings.
In 2002 Mark was called to the Bar and continued to practice predominantly in the area of family law.
