Walker Family Law, one of the South West’s largest law firms of its kind, is growing its presence in Bristol after recruiting an experienced lawyer in the city.
Kimberley Bailey, pictured, has joined the Exeter-headquartered firm’s divorce and relationships team from national specialists Woolley & Co, where she worked for nearly 12 years as a senior family law solicitor.
Walker Family Law operates from two locations in Bristol – in Great George Street and Henleaze – which have served primarily as satellite offices to meet clients based in and around the city.
However, Kimberley’s arrival has strengthened the firm’s offering in Bristol and Weston-super-Mare – where it also has a base – allowing it to expand its reach.
Kimberley specialises in providing advice on separation – both divorce and financial settlement – and resolving issues for unmarried couples, as well as child arrangements, including UK and international relocation, grandparents’ rights and domestic abuse.
Walker Family Law solicitor and divorce and relationships team leader Fiona Griffin said: “Establishing a stronger presence in Bristol and its surrounding areas is another milestone for Walker Family Law this year.
“We are proud to provide our wider community of clients with the expertise and support they require.
“Kimberley is a great addition to the team and she is excited to take on this new challenge.”
Walker Family Law, which was shortlisted in the Law Firm of the Year category in this year’s Devon and Somerset Law Society Legal Awards, describes itself as “a progressive family law firm”.
Launched 10 years ago, it is dedicated to putting Resolution at Heart and assist clients with divorce and separation, finance, pre-nuptial agreements, cohabitation, child arrangements and social service cases as well as adoption, LGBT+ family law, family mediation and civil mediation, arbitration and collaborative family law.
