Bradley Williams

Spear’s Review

Bradley Williams of Family Law in Partnership specialises in cases involving trusts. He almost fell into this niche: ‘I did one huge trust case that basically involved every test conceivable to try to pierce the corporate veil. We did so successfully, and it gave me every experience I could ever need.’

Family Law in Partnership focuses on a constructive model: ‘Mediation, arbitration and collaborative law,’ Williams says. However, ‘clients also come to us when there’s a need to litigate. It’s because of the approach we take to litigation, which is very strategic. It’s not about causing maximum fuss and chaos, denigrating the client on the other side, just to score points.’

He counters the received wisdom that English divorce courts are more favourable to the financially weaker spouse: ‘Ultimately, we have a system that is based on fairness. I think both parties will realise that the judge is doing their very best to provide this.’
