Magnus has been a family lawyer since 2000. He specialises in all aspects of family law arising on relationship breakdown, divorce and separation. He has particular expertise in financial claims arising on the breakdown of marriages and other relationships, including for unmarried couples. Those financial cases can often include substantial assets, offshore asset-holding structures and/or an international element.
He also regularly advises in relation to private law children issues, including contact arrangements, and relocation disputes – both within the UK, and where one parent is seeking to move abroad with the children.
When Magnus is not ‘lawyering’, he usually to be found pursuing some kind of outdoor adventure: paragliding and mountain-bike stage racing being the current favourites.
