Comparing January – March 2020 to 2021, the firm saw an uplift in enquiries of 143% in the Bristol area compared to a national increase of 83%.
Recently appointed Senior Solicitor Amy Langford joined the firm in March, bringing ten years of family law experience working in Bristol, Somerset and Devon. She is joined by Solicitor Georgina Nelson, whose career in family law spans seven years.

My friend James Medhurst, who has died aged 45 of Covid-19, was an employment lawyer and an eloquent campaigner for the rights of disabled people. His personal experience illustrated both the obstacles that autistic people face but also the valuable contribution they can make.
James was born in Reading to Brian Medhurst, a maths teacher, and his wife, Cathy (nee Plytas), an accountant. Academically gifted as a child, at St Bartholomew’s school, Newbury, in Berkshire, he won a place at Cambridge University to study mathematics, beginning in 1993.
