In the 2012 edition of Legal 500 our family team is ranked in the 'top tier' in both the West Midlands and South East regions. Comments from clients include "highly experienced" and "tactically adroit and approachable". The team is also described as having a "strong reputation for both private and public law children work" and are "regularly involved in cross-border disputes".

According to the 2012 issue of Chambers the family team "maintains its solid reputation having increased in size recently. Sources praise its high profile private children work, as well as its ability to handle complex matrimonial cases with international finance elements. It has also recently experienced an increase in instructions from well-known sports personalities".
