Coole Bevis LLP’s Family Team Expand Sussex Presence

Coole Bevis LLP have expanded their expert Family Team with the appointment of Michelle Shephard who joins as a Solicitor. Michelle will be based in the Brighton and Worthing offices.

Michelle has extensive experience of advising on Family related matters, having practiced Family law for 25 years in both Sussex and London legal firms, most recently at Wannops LLP and Bate & Albon.

Michelle is a member of Resolution and is also an experienced advocate, frequently representing clients in Court.

She provides advice and representation in all areas of Family Law including Divorce, Contested Financial Remedy, Consent Orders, Separation Agreements, Private Law Children, Injunction Proceedings and Cohabitee Disputes.

Michelle commented, “I am delighted to be joining the Family Department at Coole Bevis and very much look forward to working with the team.”

“When advising my clients, I always provide clear advice so that they can make informed choices about how their case is managed.  A solution that is reached amicably but fairly should be the gold standard for any family lawyer, however, on occasion Litigation may be necessary to reach a fair outcome and I hope that my experience in this area will further strengthen the team’s ability to get the best results for our clients.”
