Our story

In the year that American actress Elizabeth Taylor finalized her 7th divorce (1982), we opened our first office in a converted cobbler’s shop in Leeds. Since then, we’ve evolved, changed, and grown. Today, we are the only national law firm completely dedicated to family matters. From our unique position, we help families when they break down with care, empathy, and respect.

Our people

Our people are the backbone of what we do. We attract the best family lawyers and support teams who excel in something they are passionate about.

Within our 80-plus strong team of leading UK divorce lawyers, we have forensic accountants, a dedicated children’s department, an adoption team, surrogacy law specialists, and an international family law department and we also have trained mediators.

HALL BROWN FAMILY LAW SOLICITORS

Hall Brown Family Law was established in April 2016 by Sam Hall and James Brown with the aim of delivering outstanding service and excellent family law advice to clients. Prior to establishing the firm, Sam and James had been recognized as being amongst the best family lawyers in the country by the independent legal directories, Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners.

Shortly after founding the firm, they were joined by two of the best-known and well-respected partners in family law – Andrew Newbury and Beth Wilkins.

In only 12 months the firm became one of the top family law teams, not only in the North but in the country. In the Autumn of 2017, they opened a London office and in 2019 established a team there full-time. In April 2020 the firm opened an office in Sheffield to service and support its client base in Yorkshire. This has always been a goal for Sam being Sheffield born and bred.

The Hall Brown team prides itself on providing the same level of care and service no matter who the client is. They have acted in a large number of complex and high-profile cases, representing clients in the Supreme Court, and regularly acting for celebrities and sports stars. This is not, however, all they do. The hardest cases are not necessarily those involving large amounts of money or media interest. Hall Brown has extensive experience dealing with an entire spectrum of families from the Magistrates Court up to the Supreme Court.

Personal

We all need legal or financial advice at some point in our personal lives. It can help us through some of our key milestones – buying a house, getting married, planning retirement, providing for your kids’ future, or moving to a new country. But it’s also vital when things don’t go according to plan – if you’re hurt in an accident, a medical procedure goes wrong, a loved one loses mental capacity, or you’re treated unfairly by work or the government. It could also be a difficult family matter such as a separation or a dispute over a will. And it can also give us peace of mind for the future, whether that’s with a new Will, a power of attorney, or a solid financial plan. Whatever your situation, we have specialists ready to help. We’ll listen to you and strive for the best possible outcome. See a full list of our personal legal services and wealth management services
