Sally Powell

Executive Partner

Biography

I have practised family law exclusively since qualifying as a solicitor in 2004. I help a range of clients achieve solutions to legal disputes arising out of relationship breakdown.

I specialise in advising on the financial implications of starting a new relationship and on ending a relationship. I also specialise in dealing with the impact family breakups have on children. I have a particular specialism in dealing with complex financial issues, involving businesses, farms or trust structures (both nationally and internationally).ย I also deal with Prenuptial Agreements, Co-habitation disputes and proceedings concerning children.

I am the Head of the Family Department at Tees and lead a team of specialist family lawyers across all our offices. Our team is highly experienced and able to offer a full range of different processes to achieve solutions including collaborative law, mediation and arbitration; this means we can help you avoid long and painful disputes without compromising your position. Given the wide range of experience within the department, I am able to consider tailoring the best approach for your individual needs and specific circumstances.

I am proud of the team and the dedicated approach we employ in order to look after our clients.
