A LAW firm that has recently opened a third branch has boosted its family law team with the appointment of a new partner.
Claire Clarke has joined Blandy & Blandy and brings with her more than 20 years’ experience.
She previously worked for a specialist family law firm based in London, and a top-ranked UK and international law firm.
A recommended lawyer in The Legal 500, Ms Clarke is described as “an impeccable adviser in children and financial remedy proceedings” and is noted for her “exceptional poise” “unflappable presence even in the most contentious cases” and “keen emotional intelligence”.
She featured as a recommended lawyer in The Spear’s 500 Index, which notes: “the breadth of Claire’s practice and her dedication to her clients underline her strong credentials.”
A member of Family Law body Resolution, Ms Clarke is both a qualified collaborative lawyer and an accredited international break-up and divorce coach.
She will be based in Blandy’s Reading town centre office, but will also work remotely and from Henley and Wokingham offices, working alongside Claire Dyer and Tasha-Bevan-Stewart and eight other lawyers and advisers, making Blandy & Blandy’s Family Law team one of the largest and longest established in the region.
She said: “I am delighted to be joining Blandy & Blandy. As well as being one of the Thames Valley’s leading and longest-established law firms it is home to a top-tier and very well-respected Family Law team.
“I am excited to be joining such a great team and am very much looking forward to making a contribution.’’
Ms Dyer added: “It is wonderful to be welcoming Claire to our team, further solidifying our breadth of expertise. Claire brings a wealth of knowledge and experience and we are all looking forward to working alongside her.”
