Last night a number of Tanfield members and guests enjoyed the glitz and glamour of the Bloomsbury Big Top, for the Jordans Family Law Awards. We are delighted to announce that Tanfield’s Gwyn Evans left triumphant with the award for Family Law Commentator of the Year.
The award was solely based on votes and so we would like to say a big thank you to all those who took the time to vote for Gwyn and we hope that his articles and updates have been useful to many of you.
Gwyn has written a number of insightful pieces this year for the hard copy journal Family Law and regularly contributes case summaries for Family Law Week. He is also widely publicised, covering a broad range of topics including trusts of land, powers of attorney, contentious probate and matrimonial finance for Jordans online, as well as self-publishing on LinkedIn Pulse.
A member of the Private Client Group here at Tanfield, Gwyn specialises in the financial aspects of relationship separation. Gwyn is regularly instructed in Schedule 1, TLATA and PT III MFPA 1984 matters, as well as the more mainstream matrimonial finance cases and private children disputes.
Marc Glover has been instructed as Prince Hussam's lead counsel in the dispute since 2023, having taken over from John Wardell KC (Wilberforce). Peter Arden KC (Erskine Chambers) and Geraint Jones KC (3 Paper Buildings), were engaged with Marc in the Petition hearing, along with Tanfield’s Hugh Rowan. Marc and Hugh were assisted Sami Allan, Pupil Barrister at Tanfield Chambers. Stephen Moverly-Smith KC (XXIV) and Adam Baradon KC (Blackstone) acted on behalf of MTC.
After years of talk on meaningful reform, will 2025 be the year that things begin to change?
