Hamblin Family Law LLP, which launched in May 2023, is ‘fast becoming a go-to firm given its fresh approach’. Founder and head Georgina Hamblin, former head of family at Vardags, is ‘superbly accomplished’ in high-value, multi-jurisdictional divorce cases. The team gained Hannah Budd from legacy firm Bloom Budd, along with Charlotte Lee from Vardags and Tim Carpenter from Stewarts Law LLP, in January 2024, followed in March by Antonia Barker, also from Vardags. The practice handles the full range of family matters, including financial disputes relating to divorce, cohabitation and nuptial agreements, and jurisdictional disputes.
