Michelmores is pleased to announce that its Family team has returned to Band 1 in the Chambers UK 2026 guide, recognising the team’s outstanding expertise, client service and reputation in the South West and beyond.

The latest Chambers guide highlights the team for its expertise in dealing with high-value wealth protection and financial remedy matters on divorce, particularly those with complex issues. The team is also praised for its work in private children matters. With offices in London and across the South West, including Bristol, Cheltenham and Exeter, the Firm is described as having a “strong presence in the region.”

Daniel Eames, Partner and Head of the Family team, retains his Band 1 ranking, recognised for his “pre-eminent reputation for handling complex international cases” and “fantastic client manner.” Daniel is lauded as “a forceful negotiator” who provides clients with “realistic expectations” and ensures that settlements are both fair and achievable.

Sarah Green continues to excel, moving up within the rankings to Band 3, and is described as “very strategic and good with challenging clients”, “wise beyond her years” and “exceptionally bright.”

Felicity Chapman and Pippa Allsop are both recognised as Up and Coming practitioners, noted respectively for their thoroughness, attention to detail and calm, confident client approach.

Rhiannon Anderson is once again listed as an Associate to Watch, praised for her “total grasp of the case and its issues.”

Daniel Eames comments:

“We are extremely proud to have returned to Band 1 in the Chambers UK 2026 rankings and to be rated one of the top Family law teams in the South West. This recognition reflects the strength, depth and dedication of our team. We work with clients facing some of the most complex and sensitive family issues in the UK and internationally, and it is a privilege to be acknowledged at this level for the quality and compassion of our work.”
