A new partner, Amy Foweather, has been appointed to Harrowells' Family Law Department.
Joining from a national family law practice, where she was also a partner, Amy will advise clients across the practice’s six-office network, together with other members of the Harrowells’ specialist Family Law team, including the firm’s York city centre office in St Saviourgate.
Amy, who gained an LLB (Hons) at Northumbria University and decided to specialise in family law while completing an MA in Applied Human Rights at University of York, is a member of the Law Society’s Children’s Panel and an accredited member of the Law Society’s Advanced Family Law Panel. In her free time she works to help human rights organisations.
Amy advises in a wide range of family law matters, including divorce, complex financial settlements involving property, family businesses, farms and pensions; child arrangements, domestic and international relocation cases and child abduction and brings her experience in private adoption matters to Harrowells, after establishing a successful private adoption team elsewhere.
She comments: “It is a marvellous, and exciting, move for me to join Harrowells Family Law Department, which operates nationally and is described as ‘brilliant’ by the Legal 500 2018. I am delighted to be joining such a great, and reputable team, and look forward to advising clients on a wide range of family law issues.”
