Driven by the dynamic and encouraging leadership of Clayton Miller, the Ketley Miller Joels team continues to prove its expertise and dedication in the field of family law and solidifies its reputation as a leading specialist family law practice in London. This year’s feedback included:
“Over the past year, this niche family law firm based in Mayfair, central London, has prepared nuptial agreements for several wealthy people with international connections.
It has acted for extremely well-off clients in contested divorce and financial proceedings with assets, including trusts, in multiple countries and competing proceedings abroad.
Despite its experience in contested litigation, the firm encourages out-of-court dispute resolution and offers mediation and arbitration for financial matters and child arrangements.”
“Clayton has an amazing mind, he can see things I would not have considered; he filters the facts from the noise and has an incredibly calm and focused manner, whilst maintaining the emotional intelligence to empathise.”
