Juliet has extensive experience both regionally and nationally dealing with family issues including divorce, children and financial issues having worked with an established and well regarded local firm for the past 29 years.
Juliet is a Director and National Committee member of Resolution (which represents 6,500 Family Justice Professionals). She also sits on the committee of local Resolution groups in Cambridge and Ipswich.
Oliver Gravell, Partner and Head of Birketts’ Family Law Team, said: "I’m delighted to welcome Juliet to the team. She is a fantastic addition to our team. I am delighted also to confirm that Sarina Bailey has qualified into the Family Law team, after spending much of the training contract within the department. Sarina specialises in all aspects of family law including divorce, financial proceedings and matters relating to children.”
Oliver continued: “Birketts is recognised as a leading firm for the provision of private client, family and agricultural law advice throughout the UK and internationally, having recently been named as the UK Regional Private Client Firm of the Year at The Legal 500 Awards for a second consecutive year. We are delighted to have been able to recruit a lawyer of Juliet’s status into the team. She will be working mainly from our Ipswich and Cambridge offices in the first instance.”
"Birketts has a first-rate reputation within the region and far beyond. The team features genuinely impressive lawyers spread across its offices and I’m thrilled to be joining an outstanding team with real strength in depth", added Juliet on her recent appointment.
Juliet will be based at the law firm’s Ipswich and Cambridge offices but will support colleagues across Birketts’ four offices: Cambridge, Chelmsford, Ipswich and Norwich.
Birkett’s Family Lawyers are members of Resolution and include accredited specialists, mediators, collaborative practitioners and Family Law Arbitrators who can provide family law advice and support which best suits a client’s particular needs. All members of the Family Law team offer a free initial meeting so that clients can discuss the options available to them and can reassure themselves that they can form a good working relationship with their chosen lawyer.
