History

Family Law in Partnership was established in 1995. The firm was the first law firm to bring together lawyers, mediators and family counsellors working together to resolve clients' relationship issues.[according to whom?]

Practice

The firm advises on all aspects of family law with particular emphasis on the resolution of issues arising from

civil partners on issues such as relationship and prenuptial agreements
and the registration of civil partnerships. Two directors and two consultants are qualified family arbitrators. Mediation and counselling services are available to all clients.

The firm was instrumental in introducing the practice of

collaborative family law to Europe and its lawyers are widely recognised as leaders in the field of collaborative law.[2]
Consultant Gillian Bishop wrote the first practical handbook for clients divorcing collaboratively, "A Client's Guide to Collaborative Divorce – Putting Your Family First".
