We recognise that family breakdown affects more than just the immediate parties.
We strongly believe that family disputes are best resolved through an amicable attitude and mediation, both in respect of financial matters and children. At the same time, we are not shy in taking strong actions when a specific situation and urgency demand it, in particular when children are involved or in cases related to domestic violence.
We work closely with other professionals in the field of family disputes, including psychologists, accountants, but especially co-parenting coordinators and family mediators, to provide the best solutions for our clients.

References
Praised for its ‘attention-to-detail and proactive approach‘, Hugill & Ip has picked up a considerable amount of private client-related work since its establishment in 2018.

‘A strong technical base and comprehensive skill set. I think the difference would be a dedication to customer service.’
‘Hugill & Ip are very responsive to queries and always provide helpful comments and suggestions as appropriate.’
‘They stand out for being a highly-focused boutique firm filled with calm, welcoming, yet effective lawyers who truly recognise and empower talent.’
