Spear’s Review

‘His highly respected profile in the family law market is rightly deserved,’ says an industry observer of Dickon Ceadel, a partner in Forsters’ family team.

Ceadel acts principally for HNW individuals and their spouses, and advises on a range of issues, both litigious and non-litigious, including divorce and separation, financial disputes and child matters. Among the notable cases in his broad practice, Ceadel has successfully obtained a UK-based settlement for a famous musician in a case involving complex issues of jurisdiction, and acquired a favourable settlement on behalf of a client in a multi-jurisdiction divorce dispute. 

Clients value Ceadel’s flexibility and, most importantly, his methodical approach. ‘I like to think of myself as a problem solver,’ Ceadel tells Spear’s. ‘I try to always ensure that things are dealt with in a sensible and proportionate, sensitive way.’
