Our 2026 Family Law Conference takes place on the 2nd of October this year. 

We are privileged and excited to announce that The Right Honorable Sir Andrew McFarlane, President of the Family Division, is our key note speaker and the Chair is James Roberts KC MCIArb from 1 King's Bench Walk.

The theme of this conference is “Chattels, from the Hamster to the Superyacht” exploring how assets are dealt with on divorce, particularly pets, which are currently considered as possessions rather than as children would be, with arrangements for “residence” and “contact”.

The event will be held at Hotel L'Horizon in the beautiful St Brelade's Bay.
