I have long-admired FLP’s vision of offering real choice and holistic support to their clients. I find the firm’s commitment to dispute resolution, coupled with therapeutic support through a network of counsellors and family therapists, enormously exciting.Ā  I’m delighted to be a part of the future growth of FLP by heading and growing a London office.

Mark was one of a handful of family lawyers recognised as ā€œrising stars of the private client professionsā€Ā by ePrivateClient magazine in their annualĀ list of theĀ ā€œTop 35 Under 35″. He was also included in the 2018 Citywealth Leaders List of recommended wealth managers and advisers.

Well-known and respected among his legal peers for his forward-thinking views on family law and the profession, Mark sat for two years as chair of London YRes, representing the 500+ junior members of Resolution in London.

Robert Williams, Director at Family Law Partners, said:

At FLP we have made no secret of our desire to grow, and establishing a presence in London has long been an ambition. We are thrilled we have been able to attract a lawyer of Mark’s calibre through a shared vision of what family law can look like when clients are given options and a package of support. His experience and passion for DR, together with his views on how complementary services and technology can better empower clients, make him a natural fit for our growing team.
