Charles Russell Speechlys’ top tier Family practice bolsters its presence in Cheltenham

Charles Russell Speechlys announces the expansion of its Family offering in Cheltenham, with Felicity Chapman, Senior Associate solicitor, having relocated to Gloucestershire to be based in in the Cheltenham office to deal with increased client demand.

Felicity is very experienced, having specialised in family law for over 12 years. Her areas of expertise include divorce, separation and associated financial matters, cohabitation/unmarried couples, issues relating to children and cases involving allegations of domestic abuse. She also advises on cohabitation agreements and pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements and works closely with the private wealth team.

Felicity is described as “a very experienced solicitor who deals with some complex work” (Legal 500 2020) and “technically excellent and known for her constructive approach to cases” (Citywealth Leaders List / 2019 Future Leaders Top 100).

Ian Brothwood, head of Charles Russell Speechlys’ Cheltenham office, commented: “We are delighted that Felicity has relocated to the Charles Russell Speechlys’ Cheltenham office to develop and expand the family law offering from this location and serve our clients based in the region”.
Felicity Chapman said: “I’m very pleased to have made this move and to have been so positively welcomed to the Cheltenham office. This is an exciting development for me, and the firm, as potential family law implications can affect so many areas of our clients’ lives, particularly when considering separation or divorce, estate planning, passing wealth down the generations or selling or restructuring a business.

It’s great to be able to work more closely with the teams here to assist them and their clients in considering the family law angle, as well as advising and representing individuals on discrete family law issues”.
